Key rules and methods to solve Rotating Shapes quickly and accurately.
Rule 1: Rotation preserves chirality (handedness)
A rotated shape can never be a flipped/reflected shape. Track whether internal features are to the left or right of a central spine (clockwise vs anticlockwise).
Rule 2: Mental rotation in 90° increments
Mentally turn the figure 90° at a time or orient your perspective to match one key reference line (e.g. the flat base). Check if other features match.
Rotation vs Reflection: If a curved hook bends to the right in the original figure, turning it upside down (180°) must make it bend to the left. If it still bends right when upside down, it is a reflection!
