Let's try another rotation instead. ### Try rotating 180° ❌ ![Try rotating 180° ❌](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/dc74a3a3-6839-45c4-8a09-d00975d13a2d/CTP%20rotation%201c.png) - Rotating 180° does NOT give the expected result. Let's try another rotation instead. ### Try rotating 90° clockwise ✅ ![Try rotating 90° clockwise ✅](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/4f7930e1-a93c-4c83-b4d6-40cd86f9ad5f/CTP%20rotation%201d.png) - Rotating 90° clockwise does give the expected result. ### Consider the second pair ![Consider the second pair](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/1dada03c-4bbf-4dfb-8353-66194d4f10a2/CTP%20rotation%201%20find.png) - We now need to rotate the inner shape in the second pair to work out which image completes the pair. ### Rotating 90° clockwise ![Rotating 90° clockwise](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/367499bf-92cb-4dc3-bc41-58f25ae77a3d/CTP%20rotation%201e%20(1).png) - By performing a 90° clockwise rotation, we can find the image which completes the pair. ### Give the correct answer ![Give the correct answer](https://image-v2.cdn.app.senecalearning.com/2019-06/5856de5b-764a-4dbc-9ea2-a19b7904e33f/CTP%20rotation%201f%20(2).png) - Shape B is the correct answer as it matches the rotation of the inner shape. ## Test yourself on Complete the Pair - Rotation Example - Under which rotation does the heart shape transform?
