One vertex of a triangle is located at (0, 5) on a coordinate grid. After a transformation, the vertex is located at (5, 0). Which transformations could have taken place? Select two options. R0, 90° R0, 180° R0, 270° R0, –90° R0, –180°

Answer:

The Transformations are R(O , -90°) & R(O , 270)

Explanation:

* Lets revise the rotation of a point

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° anti-clock wise

∴ Its image is (-y , x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° clock wise

(270° anti-clockwise or -90°)

∴ Its image is (y , -x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 180°

∴ Its image is (-x , -y)

* There is no difference between rotating 180° clockwise (-180°) or

anti-clockwise (180°) around the origin

* Lets solve the problem

∵ One vertex of a triangle is located at (0, 5) on a coordinate grid

∵ The image of the point after the transformation is (5 , 0)

- The coordinates are switched with each other

∴ There is no rotation with 180° or -180° because in the rotation with

180° and -180° around the origin we change only the signs of the

coordinates without switch them

∴ There is a rotation with 90° are 270° or -90°

- The zero has no sign

- When we rotate the point (0 , 5) by -90° or 270° around the origin

we will change the sign of x-coordinate and switch the two

coordinates

∴ The image of the point is (y , -x)

∵ x = 0 and y = 5

- There is no sign for zero, so we switch the coordinates only

∴ The vertex is located at (5, 0)

∴ The Transformations are R(O , -90°) & R(O , 270)
