We know that A'B'C' is a rotation of the triangle ABC 90 decrees about the origin.

We remember that in a rotation, the lengths of the segments don't change, and thus, the measure of the segments are:


\begin{gathered} AB=A^(\prime)B^(\prime) \\ AC=A^(\prime)C^(\prime) \\ BC=B^(\prime)C^(\prime) \end{gathered}

This means that the length of A'C' is 5 units, as this is the length of the segment AC.
