The triangle shown on the graph above is rotated 90 degrees clockwise about the original to form triangle P’Q’R which of the following are the (x, y) coordinates of the point P’

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

When rotating a point 90 degrees clockwise about the origin, our original point (x,y) becomes (-y,x), because it is now at a negative y-value.

We see that our point P is at (1,2). We can use this rotation formula to find the coordinates of P' (the new spot where P is)/

(x,y)⇒(-y,x)

(1,2)⇒(-2,1)

Therefore, the coordinates of the point P' are (-2,1).

Have a wonderful day! :D
