Question

triangle klm is rotated 270° clockwise about the origin to create triangle klm. which rule describes the transformation that is applied to triangle klm?
(x,y) to (y,-x)
(x,y) to (-x,-y)
(x,y) to (-x,y)
(x,y) to (-y,x)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall rotation rules

A 270 - degree clockwise rotation about the origin has a specific rule for transforming coordinates.

Step2: State the rule

The rule for a 270 - degree clockwise rotation about the origin for a point $(x,y)$ is $(x,y)\to(y, - x)$.

Answer:

$(x,y)$ to $(y,-x)$
