Rotating refers to the action of turning around a central point or axis. This movement can be observed in various contexts, such as the spinning of a top, the orbit of planets around the sun, or the wheels of a car as it moves forward. In geometry, rotation is a transformation that changes the position of a shape while keeping its size and orientation. For example, when a circle is rotated, every point on the circle remains the same distance from the center, creating a symmetrical effect.
