Math Problem Statement
What is the image of the point left parenthesis, minus, 3, comma, 5, right parenthesis(−3,5) after a rotation of 90, degrees90 ∘ counterclockwise about the origin?
Solution
To find the image of a point after a counterclockwise rotation about the origin, we can use the following rule:
- The image of after a counterclockwise rotation becomes .
Given the point , we apply this transformation:
So, the image of the point after a counterclockwise rotation about the origin is .
