Types of Transformations
1) Translation
2) Scaling
3) Rotation
1) Translation
Let P ≡ (x, y) and P1 ≡ (x1, y1) such that x1 = x + tx and y1 = y + ty.

3) Rotation
The point P rotates around the origin by angle θ in anticlockwise
direction. Let P ≡ (x, y) and P1 ≡ (x1, y1).
OP = OP1 = r
OAPΔ  x = r cos α; y = r sin α
OA1P1Δ  x1 = r cos (α + θ); y1 = r sin (α + θ)
x1 = r cos α cos θ – r sin α sin θ = x cos θ – y sin θ
y1 = r sin α cos θ + r cos α sin θ = y cos θ + x sin θ
