if it is rotated clockwise, it will be (4,4)



if it is rotated anticlockwise, it will be(-4,-4)

Answer:

C. (-4, -4)

Explanation:

We are given that,

The co-ordinates of the point P are (-4,4).

Now, point P is rotated by 90° about the origin.

It is required to find the co-ordinates of its image.

Since, the direction is not given. So, by default, the point will be rotated counter-clockwise.

Rotation about the origin by 90° counter-clockwise changes the co-ordinates (x,y) to (-y,x).

So, the co-ordinates of the image of point P are (-4,-4).

Thus, option C is correct.
