Let TkT_k be the transformation of the coordinate plane that first rotates the plane kk degrees counterclockwise around the origin and then reflects the plane across the yy -axis. What is the least positive integer nn such that performing the sequence of transformations T1,T2,T3,...,TnT_1, T_2, T_3,...,T_n returns the point (1,0)(1, 0) back to itself?
