Question

Rotate the point (5, 8) on a geometric figure 270 degrees clockwise. What is the new point?(1 point)
1.(8,5)
2.(-8,-5)
3.(8,-5)
4,(-8,5)

Answer 1

To rotate the point (5, 8) 270 degrees clockwise, we can use the formula for a 270 degree clockwise rotation: (x, y) -> (-y, x).

Plugging in the values for the given point:
(-8, 5) is the new point.

The correct answer is 4. (-8, 5).
