Sedimentary rock to change to Igneous rock by applying heat and pressure , which creates Metamorphic rock . Next , Metamorphic rock turns to Magma because it melts . Lastly you have to let the Magma cool and it becomes an Igneous rock . That is how Sedimentary rock changes to Igneous rock .

The rock gets weathered and eroded to sediments. Then the sediments pile on top of each other and become cemented. Now they have become AA sedimentary rock.
