Answer:


(0,4) \implies (-4, 0)\\(3,5) \implies (-5,3)\\(2,-1) \implies (1,2)

Explanation:

A 90° counterclockwise rotation is defined as


(x,y) \implies (-y,x)

The given coordinates are


(0,4)\\(3,5)\\(2,-1)

Applying the 90° counterclockwise rotation, we have


(0,4) \implies (-4, 0)\\(3,5) \implies (-5,3)\\(2,-1) \implies (1,2)

The image attached show both figures.
