The rock cycle
The geological processes, that are involved in changing igneous rock to sedimentary rock are; weathering, erosion, deposition and compaction.
Igneous rock can change into sedimentary rock or into metamorphic rock. Sedimentary rock can change into metamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rock can change into igneous or sedimentary rock.
No, high pressure alone cannot change an igneous rock into sedimentary rock; however, the reverse is true. High pressure can change sedimentary rock into igneous rock.
Igneous Rock Metamorphic Rock Sedimentary Rock
Igneous Rock Metamorphic Rock Sedimentary Rock
An igneous rock, just like any other rock, can be changed through metamorphic, igneous, and/or sedimentary processes. When exposed to high temp. and pressure, igneous becomes metamorphic. When re-melted, it becomes igneous again. When weathered/eroded, it becomes sedimentary.

Sedimentary rock can change intometamorphic rock or into igneous rock. Metamorphic rockcan change into igneous or sedimentary rock. Igneous rock forms when magma cools and makes crystals. Magma is a hot liquid made of melted minerals.
