Answer: (-3, 4)


Step-by-step explanation: Given point coordinate (4,3).

We need to rotate the given point about 90º.

In order to find the new coordinates of rotation 90°counterclockwise about the origin, we can apply rule (h, k) ---> (-k,h).

Where (h,k) are the coordinates of original image on axes and (-k,h) are the coordinates of rotated image.


In resulting coordinates of the image first swap the x and y coordinates of the original image and then make the sign opposite of each x-coordinate.

On applying rule (h, k) ---> (-k,h), we get

(4,3) ---> (-3, 4)
