Question

What is the image of the point (24, 6), when rotated through 90 degrees clockwise? *

(-24, -6)
(24, 6)
(6, -24)
(-24, 6)

Answer 1

Answer is : (6,-24)

Answer 2

6,-24 is our NEW IMAGE.

Explanation:

OUR PRE-IMAGE is currently in QUADRANT 1

moving 90 degrees clockwise moves it into the QUADRANT 4.

In a 90 DEGREE rotation, we have to SWITCH THE x, and Y.

6,24 is our new values after switching the x and y.

Now we can use the quadrant rules,

+x,-y

6,-24
