rotation, then reflection

Answer 1

Rotation is a transformation that rotates a figure around a fixed point, called the center of rotation. It is commonly described by the angle of rotation and the direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) in which the figure rotates.

Reflection, on the other hand, is a transformation that flips a figure over a line, called the line of reflection. It basically creates a mirror image of the original figure with respect to the line of reflection.

In combination, rotation followed by reflection would involve rotating a figure around a fixed point first and then reflecting the rotated figure over a line. The order of transformation matters in this case, as the figure would have a different final orientation depending on whether rotation or reflection is performed first.
