Math Problem Statement
Solution
To solve this problem, we are asked to find the coordinates of the vertices of the shape after a 90° counterclockwise rotation around the origin. In a 90° counterclockwise rotation, the transformation rule is:
This means that for every point on the shape, we swap the coordinates and change the sign of the original y-coordinate.
The coordinates of the points before the rotation (from the image) are:
Now, applying the 90° counterclockwise rotation:
- For , we get
- For , we get
- For , we get
- For , we get
So, the new coordinates after the 90° counterclockwise rotation are:

- What are the coordinates of the point after a 90° counterclockwise rotation around the origin?
- What happens to a point under a 180° rotation about the origin?
- How would you rotate a shape 90° clockwise around the origin?
- What is the rule for rotating a point 270° counterclockwise around the origin?
- What is the result of reflecting a point over the x-axis?
Tip: For any rotation around the origin, visualize how each axis transforms to make rotations easier!
