I want to rotate the image, but it is going out of parent div.
<div>
<img src="https://cdn.eso.org/images/thumb300y/eso1907a.jpg">
<button class="rotate-button">rotate image</button>
</div>
jquery code
$('.rotate-button').on('click', function() {
var image = $(this).prev('img');
image.className = "rotated_90deg";
});
unrotated state:
how can I keep the image smaller in rotated state, so that it does not go out of parent div?

Put the image inside a container div, give it an id or class and set the overflow to hidden:
.imgContainer{
overflow: hidden;
}
Or if you want the picture to scale so it fits within the div, set max width and height:
.imgContainer img{
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
}

"tranform rotate" does just that. It retains its original height, and the forging is done in a separate visual layer.
the best thing you can do is set the height of the area where the image rotates equal to the largest side of the image
const img = document.querySelector('img');
const {offsetHeight, offsetWidth} = img;
if(offsetWidth >= offsetHeight) {
img.parentElement.style.height = offsetWidth + 'px';
}
const rotations = [];
const rotateImage = () => {
rotations.push('rotate(45deg)');
img.style.transform = rotations.join(' ');
}
div { display: flex; }
img { transition: .3s; margin: auto; }
button { display: block; margin: auto; position: relative }
<div>
<img src="http://placekitten.com/300/200">
</div>
<button onclick=rotateImage()>Rotate</button>
hmm ... maybe I hastened to answer. As a solution, "position: relative;" on the button

Try using the solution with scale
property
$('.rotate-button').on('click', function() {
var image = $(this).prev('img');
image.className = "rotated_90deg";
});
.rotated_90deg {
transform: rotate(90deg) scale(0.5, 1);
}
