Question

Which statement about a rotation is true? A. Rotating a right trapezoid around its vertical axis will form a cone. B. Rotating a square around its vertical axis will form a sphere. C. Rotating a right triangle around its vertical axis will form a cone. D. Rotating a rectangle around its vertical axis will form a sphere.

Answer 1

Rotating a shape involves moving it in a circular way around its axis

The true statement about the rotation is (c) Rotating a right triangle around its vertical axis will form a cone.

How to determine the rotation?

When a two-dimensional shape such as triangles, trapezoid, square, rectangles, etc are rotated about their axes, the new shape formed is a three-dimensional shape

As a general rule, the rotation of a right triangle around its axis would form a cone.

Hence, the true statement about the rotation is (c)
