B)Create a circle with the origin as its center and a radius of the origin and point A, then locate a point on the circle that is 90


C)Create a line perpendicular to the x-axis from point A, and locate a point on the perpendicular line that is equidistant to the


D)Create a circle with point A as its center and a radius of the origin and point A, then locate a point on the circle that is 90° CO

Answer 1

i think the answer is A

Explanation:

if this is wrong plz tell me what the correct answer is.

Answer 2

B)Create a circle with the origin as its center and a radius of the origin and point A, then locate a point on the circle that is 90 clockwise

Explanation:

This is because, to locate a point rotated by 90° from point A, we first draw a circle with the origin as its center and a radius of the origin and point A. We then locate a point on the line that is 90° clockwise from point A. For a 90° clockwise rotation, for a given pair of coordinates, (x,y), the resulting pair of coordinates is (y,-x). So, for the coordinates (1,4), the resulting coordinates we are looking for is (4, -1), which is the point rotated 90° clockwise from point A. The point is thus (4,-1).
