Final answer:
To find the coordinate of K', we first rotate point a (-7,-2) 270 degrees clockwise. Then, we shift the resulting coordinates 3 units down. The coordinate of K' is (-7, -5).
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the coordinate of K', we first need to rotate point a (-7,-2) 270 degrees clockwise. To do this, we can use the rotation matrix:
[cos(theta) -sin(theta)] [x]
[sin(theta) cos(theta)] [y]
Plugging in the values, we get:
[cos(270) -sin(270)] [-7]
[sin(270) cos(270)] [-2]
Simplifying, we have:
[-0 -1] [-7]
[1 0]] [-2]
Multiplying, we get:
[0 -7]
[1 0]]
Now, we shift the resulting coordinates 3 units down. Adding -3 to the y-coordinate, the coordinate of K' is (-7, -5).
