Question

Triangle WXY, with a vertex X at (3, 0), is rotated clockwise 270° about the origin.

Which of the following rotations is equivalent 270° clockwise rotation about the origin?

clockwise 270°
counterclockwise 90°
counterclockwise 360°
clockwise 90°

Answer 1

Answer: A rotation of 270° clockwise is equivalent to a rotation of 90° counterclockwise, because a full rotation is 360° and 270° clockwise is the same as 90° counterclockwise in terms of direction.

Therefore, the answer is: counterclockwise 90°.
