Explanation:

Unfortunately, you haven't given the coordinates of RST so I can't tell you exactly what the new points will be, but I can tell you what process to follow.

To find a new point rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise around the origin, simply apply the rule:

(x,y) ----> (-y,x)

You would apply this rule of switching the x and y coordinates and y becomes the opposite(so if it was a positive coordinate, it becomes negative and if it was negative, it becomes positive), to get your new coordinates.

Hope this helps :)
