- 1A has vertices (2, 1), (4, 1), (4, 2); B has vertices (3, 4), (3, 6), (4, 4)
- 2The shape is turned through a quarter turn clockwise, so it is a rotation
- 3Centre found where perpendicular bisectors of corresponding points meet: (5, 3)
- 4Rotation, 90° clockwise, centre (5, 3)
AnswerRotation, (5, 3), 90° clockwise
