of P under the following rotation.
90° counterclockwise about the origin
([?], [])
Enter the number that belongs in
the green box
Enter

Answer 1

(-2, 3)

Explanation:

Think of this in the future:

Counter-clockwise rotations:

90-degree --> (x,y) = (-y,x) ex. (3,2) --> (-2,3)

180-degree --> (x,y) = (-x,-y) ex. (3,2) --> (-3, -2)

270 degree --> (x,y) = (y,-x) ex. (3,2) --> (2, -3)

Clockwise rotations:

90-degree --> (x,y) = (y, -x) ex. (3,2) --> (2, -3)

180-degree --> (x,y) = (-x,-y) ex. (3,2) --> (-3,-2)

270-degree --> (x,y) = (-y, x) ex. (3,2) --> (-2,3)
