Rotation About a Point (Not Origin) 3 Easy Steps!

In this video lesson we go through 3 examples involving rotating a point about a center of rotation that is different from the origin. We discuss the rules of rotation 90, 180, 270.

I am a tutor (usually calculus, but I have a few geo students this year). I struggle with this concept and you have made it amazingly simple. From one teacher to another - you have an amazing gift for making this difficult concept very clear. Thank you for sharing it!

[Hihowarey-sc]

Way better than what teachers explain in school thanks a lot

[StudyJoe-sytx]

One of the best math tutors on this internet! Explanations super clear! Great job!🎉

[richardpawlowski]

Thanks for the very easy to understand lesson. I haven't looked at this in many decades and my daughter was having trouble with this. It took no time for her to understand and apply your lesson.

dude u dont understand how much u helped me out i wouldve failed math if it wasnt for u like none of the other videos explain properly but i love this trick. thank u sooo much 💕💕💕

Hey man thanks so much for helping me.Tommorow is my exam and I'm watching this.This is really better than all the other videos,

My tuition teacher from now on ( subscribing rn)

[chengyishao]

Thank you SO much for this. Words cannot express my gratitude for the simplification of this process. I am studying for my geometry test, and this explains the concept so concisely! Again, I’m extremely grateful for this explanation. I feel so ready to ace my test.

[MoorishBandit]

Wow. very intuitive. When you understand how to rotate individual points then it makes rotating entire 2d and 3d shapes simple it's the same thing except on many points.

SAVED ME AFTER WEEKS AND HOURS OF STRUGGLES

[charlottetebbe]

As a parent helping their teen with geometry, this was very helpful

[judithhawkins]

I really appreciated your explanation!!

[erkangulec]

Thanks for your care and practical explanation of the rotation about a point, Mario. A minor comment you could include in your video is that R CCW 270 degrees = R CW 90 degrees. Respect!

[rehmahassaan]

U made an easier explanation than my teacher😂

[falehalidmat]

It’s the best and the easiest way
Thank you 🌹

What should I do this if I just have points on a graph with no x and y axis and no units (essentially I don’t know where the origin is or the coordinates of the points)

[rehmahassaan]

What if we have to rotate anti clockwise will we apply the same rule ?

[eishaanqureshi]

do these rules also work for the origin

[KiarraMoore]

what about the rroation rules for rotating clockwise?

[iddrisuharuna]

What about the angle been 45 what's the rotation rule
