Define rotations, reflections, and translations using geometric language: angles, circles, perpendicular/parallel lines, and segments.

Compare fixed points of transformations

Problem

Compare the fixed points of rotation about point \(O\) and translation by a nonzero vector.

Big Picture

What this problem is really about

A fixed point must land at exactly the same location, which is stronger than merely preserving a distance. Test each transformation with that definition: examine the pivot of the turn, then set the translated point equal to its original position and see what the resulting equation forces about the displacement vector.
