Answer:

-90 degrees

Explanation:

Draw a segment from the origin, point O, to point R. Draw a segment from the origin, point O, to point R'. The angle of rotation is the angle between segments OR and OR'.

The slope of segment OR is 2/3.

The slope of segment OR' is -3/2.

The slopes are negative reciprocals, so the segments are perpendicular.

The angle between the segments is 90 degrees. The rotation is counterclockwise, so it is a negative number of degrees.

The angle of rotation is -90 degrees.
