Important note: As we discussed at the beginning of class, rotation of a positive degree measure means the shape will travel counterclockwise. A rotation of a negative degree measure means the shape will travel clockwise.

Directions: As you're working through the simulation, make sure to do rotations with both positive and negative angle measures. Make sure to also perform rotations with measures of 180 degrees.
