Hi Eduardo
in the preamble put
\usepackage[figureright]{rotating}
see manual for figureright if you do not like it
and then some graphics with options where needed
\begin{sidewaysfigure}
\centering
\includegraphics[width=,%
clip=true,%
trim=0in 0in 0in 0in,% LBRT
keepaspectratio=true]%
{filename}
\end{sidewaysfigure}
otherwise \usepackage landscape (check spelling) for a full page
