Rotation
R_(O,270^(\circ)) by
270^(\circ) anti-clockwise about the origin has the rule:


(x,y)\rightarrow (y,-x).

Points M and N have coordinates (5,9) and (4,3), respectively.

Find the coordinates of ratation image points M' and N':


M(5,9)\rightarrow M'(9,-5).


N(4,3)\rightarrow N'(3,-4).

Answer: M'(9,-5), N'(3,-4)
