In this section, we will look at rotation patterns. ### Check for shading patterns ![Check for shading patterns](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/9481adcb-2749-4648-bf70-400219a02321/CS1-2%20SW%20Stage%201.jpg) - Have a look at this sequence of four images and think about what shading patterns you can see. ### 1st pattern - shading ![1st pattern - shading](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/fe846c21-6fee-4741-ada9-215b557ee4e0/CS1-2%20SW%20Stage%202.jpg) ### 1st pattern - shading ![1st pattern - shading](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/4873b859-03e8-4809-9df9-d276a25b91f5/CS1-2%20SW%20Stage%203.jpg) ### Rule out answer ![Rule out answer](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/0ce2f22c-25a0-4587-bbd4-a7589d53f7ac/CS1-2%20SW%20Stage%204%20(1).jpg) - D is the only one that doesn't fit the shading pattern we have identified. - We now need to look for a second pattern that will help us work out which of A, B or C is correct. ### 2nd pattern - rotation ![2nd pattern - rotation](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/f1318144-3835-4ad6-b582-2de29c5d923a/CS1-2%20SW%20Stage%205.jpg) ### 2nd pattern - rotation ![2nd pattern - rotation](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/1ddbbea5-675c-4880-96a5-87bcd93393da/CS1-2%20SW%20Stage%206.jpg) ### Identify the correct answer ![Identify the correct answer](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/48eba96d-5f6d-47bc-bee0-66116467aeb2/CS1-2%20SW%20Stage%208.png) - A, B and C all matched the shading pattern of having black shapes in the top left and bottom right. - C is the only one that also has a triangle in the expected position of bottom right. ## Test yourself on Complete the Set - Rotation & Shading Example - What pattern can you see in the sequence of images?
