Answer:

270°-clockwise rotation [90°-counterclockwise rotation]

Explanation:

Now, a 90°-clockwise rotation is the exact same as a 270°-counterclockwise rotation, and according to the 270°-counterclockwise rotation [90°-clockwise rotation] rule, you take the y-coordinate, bring it over to your new x-coordinate, and take the OPPOSITE of the x-coordinate and set it as your new y-coordinate:

Extended Rotation Rules

270°-clockwise rotation [90°-counterclockwise rotation] >> (x, y) → (-y, x)

270°-counterclockwise rotation [90°-clockwise rotation] >> (x, y) → (y, -x)

180°-rotation >> (x, y) → (-x, -y)

So, perform your rotation:

270°-counterclockwise rotation [90°-clockwise rotation] → [1, 3] moves to [-3, 1]

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
