15. Point W(-6, 7) is rotated 90° clockwise.
Where is W'?
(There was no pic)

Answer 1

After a 90° clockwise rotation, point W(-6, 7) will be at position W'(7, -6), with the original x-coordinate becoming the y-coordinate and the y-coordinate becoming the negative of the x-coordinate.

Step-by-step explanation:

When point W(-6, 7) is rotated 90° clockwise, its new position, referred to as W', can be found by switching the x and y coordinates and changing the sign of the original x-coordinate. A 90° clockwise rotation essentially means that the point's x-coordinate becomes the y-coordinate, and the y-coordinate becomes the negative of the x-coordinate.

The coordinates of W' after a 90° clockwise rotation can be calculated as follows:

1. Switch the x and y coordinates of W(-6, 7) to get (7, -6).
2. Change the sign of the original x-coordinate to get W'(7, 6).

Therefore, the new position of W' after a 90° clockwise rotation is (7, -6).

Answer 2

Answer: W’ is (7,6) Explanation: When we flip clockwise from the quadrant (-6,7) is located, we are moving into quadrant 1, which is completely positive (+,+). Our x and y numbers will flip once since we are only rotating 90°. When working with transformations, please try your best to remember your quadrants.
