problem

Let

T_k

be the transformation of the coordinate plane that first rotates the plane

k

degrees counterclockwise around the origin and then reflects the plane across the

y

-axis. What is the least positive integer

n

such that performing the sequence of transformations

T_1, T_2, T_3, \cdots, T_n

returns the point

(1,0)

back to itself?

Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)

Let T_(k) be the transformation of the coordinate plane that first rotates the plane k degrees counterclockwise around the origin and then reflects the plane across the y-axis. What is the least positive
integer n such that performing the sequence of transformations T₁,T₂,T₃,⋯,T_(n) returns the point (1,0) back to itself?

Original LaTeX notation

Let $T_k$ be the transformation of the coordinate plane that first rotates the plane $k$ degrees counterclockwise around the origin and then reflects the plane across the $y$-axis. What is the least positive
integer $n$ such that performing the sequence of transformations $T_1, T_2, T_3, \cdots, T_n$ returns the point $(1,0)$ back to itself?
