To rotate a point (x, y) 90° clockwise, we can use the formula:
(x', y') = (y, -x)
Using this formula for the endpoints (2, -1) and (5, -4):
For the first endpoint:
x' = -1
y' = -(2) = -2
Therefore, the new coordinates for the first endpoint are (-1, -2).
For the second endpoint:
x' = -4
y' = -(5) = -5
Therefore, the new coordinates for the second endpoint are (-4, -5).
So, the correct answer is:
(-1, -2) and (-4, -5)
