: I don't understand what the term "about" means. I have to draw a figure, then draw it's reflection, then draw another reflection and then it tells me to draw a 90 degree clockwise rotation of the figure about B. I don't know what "about" means and it's not in the glossary.This question is from textbook Geometry for enjoyment and challenge

"about" B means that B is the center of rotation

if you could, you would stick a pin through B and spin everything 90º clockwise around the pin
