Math Problem Statement

Finding the Rotation:

Assume x=yx=y. To obtain 3223​, we need to rotate to increase xx by 0.5y0.5y.

Since 360∘/(3/2)=240∘360∘/(3/2)=240∘, an increase by 240∘−180∘=60∘240∘−180∘=60∘ results in the required ratio. For the minimal movement:

A 36∘36∘ rotation was marked correct as it is typically enough to produce 3223​ in similar triangle relations.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

36 degrees. can you explain this easily
