Question

If a building was placed at coordinates (-5,5), what would be the new coordinates if rotated 270° counterclockwise around the origin ?

Answer 1

The new coordinates are (-5, -5)

Answer 2

The rule for a 270° counterclockwise rotation is (x, y) ---> (y, -x).

So if you rotated (-5,5) 270° counterclockwise around the origin the new coordinates would be (-5,-5).

Hope this Helps!!
