To find the new point after rotating (x, y) counterclockwise about the origin 270 degrees, we need to use the following rotation formula:

x' = x*cos(θ) - y*sin(θ)
y' = x*sin(θ) + y*cos(θ)

In this case, since we're rotating counterclockwise 270 degrees, we have θ = 270 degrees.

Converting θ to radians: 270 degrees * (π/180) radians/degree = 3π/2 radians

Substituting the values into the formulas:

x' = x*cos(3π/2) - y*sin(3π/2)
= x*0 - y*(-1)
= y

y' = x*sin(3π/2) + y*cos(3π/2)
= x*(-1) + y*0
= -x

Therefore, the new point after rotating (x, y) counterclockwise about the origin 270 degrees is (-y, -x).

To find the new point after rotating (1, 2) clockwise about the origin 90 degrees, we can use the rotation formulas given earlier:

x' = x*cos(θ) + y*sin(θ)
y' = -x*sin(θ) + y*cos(θ)

In this case, since we're rotating clockwise 90 degrees, we have θ = -90 degrees.

Converting θ to radians: -90 degrees * (π/180) radians/degree = -π/2 radians

Substituting the values into the formulas:

x' = 1*cos(-π/2) + 2*sin(-π/2)
= 1*0 + 2*(-1)
= -2

y' = -1*sin(-π/2) + 2*cos(-π/2)
= -1*(-1) + 2*0
= 1

Therefore, the new point after rotating (1, 2) clockwise about the origin 90 degrees is (-2, 1).

To determine the new point after rotating (-4, 5) counterclockwise about the origin 270 degrees, we will use the rotation formulas mentioned earlier:

x' = x*cos(θ) - y*sin(θ)
y' = x*sin(θ) + y*cos(θ)

In this case, since we are rotating counterclockwise by 270 degrees, θ = 270°.

Converting θ to radians: 270° * (π/180) radians/degree = 3π/2 radians

Substituting the values into the formulas:

x' = (-4)*cos(3π/2) - 5*sin(3π/2)
= (-4)*0 - 5*(-1)
= 5

y' = (-4)*sin(3π/2) + 5*cos(3π/2)
= (-4)*(-1) + 5*0
= 4

Hence, the new point after rotating (-4, 5) counterclockwise about the origin 270 degrees is (5, 4).
