Answer:

Venus's rotation is retrograde compared to Earth's.

Explanation:

Firstly its axis of rotation is inclined at 177.36 degrees (compared to 23.5 degrees on Earth). This means that Venus rotates in a retrograde direction from east to west, making the Sun rise in the west and set in the east. Further to this the rotation is very slow: a sidereal day on Venus lasts 243 Earth days.
