Lecture

Rotations: Isometries and Axes

Description

This lecture covers the concept of rotations as isometries with a single fixed point, which can be expressed as compositions of reflections. It explains that an isometry is a rotation if it is the composition of two reflections with a common axis. The lecture also discusses the choice of axes for rotations, highlighting the flexibility in selecting axes when the rotation is the identity.
