Math Problem Statement

r(90°, O) (△MN) for M(3, −5), N(2, 4)

Solution

To rotate a figure MN\triangle MN around the origin OO by 9090^\circ, we apply the following transformation rules for a 9090^\circ counterclockwise rotation about the origin:

(x,y)(y,x)(x, y) \rightarrow (-y, x)

Given:

  • M(3,5)M(3, -5)
  • N(2,4)N(2, 4)

Applying the transformation to each point:

  1. For M(3,5)M(3, -5): M=((5),3)=(5,3)M' = (-(-5), 3) = (5, 3)

  2. For N(2,4)N(2, 4): N=(4,2)N' = (-4, 2)

Final Coordinates After Rotation

  • M=(5,3)M' = (5, 3)
  • N=(4,2)N' = (-4, 2)

Thus, the rotated image MN\triangle M'N' has vertices:

  • M(5,3)M'(5, 3)
  • N(4,2)N'(-4, 2)
