The coordinates of the point B after a 90 degrees counterclockwise rotation about the origin is

To get the new coordinates of the point B after rotation, we need to get the coordinates before rotation

The coordinates of the point B is (4,1)

By rotating a specific point Z with coordinates (x,y) counterclockwise about the origin at an angle of 90 degrees, we get a new point Z' with coordinates (-y,
