If P(x, y) are coordinates of a point referred to old, axes and P’ (X, Y) are the coordinates of the same points referred to new axes, then, , Rotation of Axes, Let (x, y) be the coordinates of any point P referred to the old axes and (X, Y) be its, coordinates referred to the new axes (after rotating the old axes by angle θ). Then,, X = x cos θ + y sin θ and Y = y cos θ + x sin θ, , Shifting of Origin and Rotation of Axes, If origin is shifted to point (h, k) and system is also rotated by an angle θ in anti-clockwise,, then coordinate of new point P’ (x’, y’) is obtained by replacing, x’= h + x cos θ + y sin θ, and y’ = k – x sin θ + y cos θ, Locus
