Question

1. what is the effect of a 270 - degree clockwise rotation about the point (-1, - 3) on a point (2, 2)? (-2, 2) (-5, 3) (-6, 0) (-4, - 6)

Explanation:

Step1: Translate the point

Translate the point \((2,2)\) so that the center of rotation \((-1,-3)\) becomes the origin.
Subtract the coordinates of the center of rotation from the point's coordinates: \((2 - (-1),2 - (-3))=(3,5)\)

Step2: Apply the rotation matrix

A \(270^{\circ}\) clockwise rotation matrix is \(

$$\begin{pmatrix}0&1\\-1&0\end{pmatrix}$$

\).
Multiply the translated point \((3,5)\) by the matrix:
\(

$$\begin{pmatrix}0&1\\-1&0\end{pmatrix}$$

$$\begin{pmatrix}3\\5\end{pmatrix}$$

=

$$\begin{pmatrix}0\times3 + 1\times5\\-1\times3+0\times5\end{pmatrix}$$

=

$$\begin{pmatrix}5\\-3\end{pmatrix}$$

\)

Step3: Translate back

Translate the rotated point back by adding the coordinates of the center of rotation \((-1,-3)\) to the rotated - translated point \((5,-3)\):
\((5+(-1),-3+(-3))=(4,-6)\)

Wait, there is a mistake above. A \(270^{\circ}\) clockwise rotation about the origin \((x,y)\to(y, - x)\). For the translated point \((x = 3,y = 5)\), after rotation, it is \((5,-3)\). Then translate back: \((5-1,-3 - 3)=(-4,-6)\)

Answer:

\((-4,-6)\)
