How to rotate figures in coordinate space around a given rotation

In this lesson we’ll look at how the rotation of a figure in a coordinate plane determines where it’s located. A rotation is a type of transformation that moves a figure around a central rotation point, called the point of rotation. The point of rotation can be inside or outside of the figure.
