if o is the center of a counterclockwise rotation and the rotation maps c to e the magnitude and direction is?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The center is in the middle marked with a capital O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

magnitude and direction is a displacement vector .... which seems odd in this question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since there are 6 sides, how many degrees does a rotation from C to B give us?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no clue

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When i went through the tutorial it never explained it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well, if we assume that this fits into a circle. how many degrees compose a circle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

360

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, so, 360 divided by 6 will give us the degree of rotation from C to B.... how many of those get us to E ? |dw:1394299871458:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

360/6=60

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so would you do 60*6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good, 60 is one rotation ..... i think the information says counterclockwise as a direction ....|dw:1394300026876:dw| so 4 times 60 might be what they want as a magnitude, whereas the direction is already given as counterclockwise .... maybe +240 ??
