Given a point (−7, 4) on a geometric figure, what is the new point after rotating the figure 90 degrees counterclockwise?(1 point)

1 answer

To find the new point after rotating the figure 90 degrees counterclockwise, we can use the formula for a rotation of a point (x, y) by 90 degrees counterclockwise:

(x', y') = (-y, x)

In this case, the original point is (-7, 4). Plugging the values into the formula, we get:

x' = -4
y' = -(-7) = 7

Therefore, the new point after rotating the figure 90 degrees counterclockwise is (-4, 7).
