A triangle has vertices at R(1, 1), S(–2, –4), and T(–3, –3). The triangle is transformed according to the rule R0, 270°. What are the coordinates of S'?
Answer
A
(–4, 2)
B
(–2, 4)
C
(2, 4)
D
(4, –2)
Explanation
A 270° rotation about the origin maps each point (x, y) to (y, −x). Applying this rule to S(−2, −4) gives S′ = (−4, 2), which is choice A.
