Rotation of 270° ,counterclockwise

Find center point of triangle

JK = √ 9^2 +5^2

. = √ 106

JL = √9^2 + 3^2

. = √90

KL = 8

Then now find point J'

Distance from J to origin = JO = √4^2+2^2 =√20

Angle is arctan (2/4) = 26.56°

Then new coordinates J' are

Angle 270+26.56 = 296.56°

From origin trace a line perpendicular to JO

then

y = √20• Cos 26°

y = 4
