Question
- rotate point p 90° counterclockwise about the origin.
Response
- Recall the rotation rule for a 90 - degree counter - clockwise rotation about the origin:
- The rule for rotating a point \((x,y)\) 90 degrees counter - clockwise about the origin is \((x,y)\to(-y,x)\).
- However, we need to first identify the coordinates of point \(P\). From the graph, assume the coordinates of point \(P\) are \((3, - 2)\).
- Apply the rotation rule:
- Using the rule \((x,y)\to(-y,x)\), when \(x = 3\) and \(y=-2\), we substitute \(y=-2\) into \(-y\) and \(x = 3\) into \(x\) in the new - coordinate pair.
- \(-y=-(-2)=2\) and \(x = 3\).
- So the new coordinates of the rotated point are \((2,3)\).
