The graph of the triangle with vertices L(1, 6), M(-2, 4), and N(3, 2), and the image of the triangle with vertices L''(3, 1), M''(1, 4), and N(-1, -1), created using MS Excel is attached

The steps used to find the graph of the triangle and the image of the triangle can be presented as follows;

The coordinates of the point (x, y) following a 90° clockwise rotation about the origin is the point (y, -x)

Therefore, the coordinates of the vertices of the image of the triangle ΔLMN after a rotation 90° about the origin are;

L(1, 6) ⇒ 90° rotation about the origin ⇒ L'(6, -1)

M(-2, 4) ⇒ 90° rotation about the origin ⇒ M'(4, 2)

N(3, 2) ⇒ 90° rotation about the origin ⇒ N'(2, -3)

The translation transformation can be applied to the coordinates of the vertices of the image of the triangle ΔLMN, to get;

L'(6, -1) → (x - 3, y + 2) → L''(3, 1)

M'(4, 2) → (x - 3, y + 2) → M''(1, 4)

N'(2, -3) → (x - 3, y + 2) → N''(, -1, -1)

Please find attached the graph of the triangle ΔLMN and its image, created using MS Excel
