Given point A (2, 4) on the triangle in quadrant I how would you describe the coordinates of the new point when the triangle is rotated 90 degrees clockwise?

Question

Answer 1

When a point is rotated 90 degrees clockwise, its new coordinates can be found by swapping the x and y values and changing the sign of the new y value.

In this case, since point A is at (2, 4), after rotating 90 degrees clockwise, the new point will have coordinates (-4, 2).
