A function found within image editing software that allows all or part of a pixel image to be rotated by any number of degrees Rotation in 90° increments is fast and carries no quality penalty but this is not the case for other angles This is why it is important to carefully orient artwork on a scanner so that rotation will not be necessary
To rotate an object in a tessellation means to repeat the object by spinning it on a point a certain angle (cfTranslations, Reflections, and Rotations, Symmetry in Tessellations)
If people or things rotate, or if someone rotates them, they take it in turns to do a particular job or serve a particular purpose.

switches the horizontal and vertical axes so that the theoretical percentiles are plotted vertically while the data are plotted horizontally Regardless of whether the plot has been rotated, horizontal axis options (such as HAXIS=) refer to the horizontal axis, and vertical axis options (such as VAXIS=) refer to the vertical axis All other options that depend on axis placement adjust to the rotated axes
To turn around a center point, or axis, like a wheel turns on a bicycle S SATELLITE An object that moves around a larger object There are natural satellites such as moons and there are man-made satellites such as the Hubble Space Telescope
