Quadrilateral
\[A'B'C'D'\] is the image of quadrilateral
\[ABCD\] under a rotation about the origin,
\[(0,0)\].
An XY coordinate plane with 2 quadrilaterals graphed. The horizontal x axis runs left to right from negative 8 to 8 in intervals of 1. The vertical y axis runs up and down from negative 8 to 8 in intervals of 1. The blue quadrilateral has 4 vertices. Point A is plotted at (negative 2, negative 6), point B is plotted at negative 3, negative 6), point C is plotted at negative 4, negative 3), and point D is plotted at 1, negative 4). The red quadrilateral has 4 vertices. Point A prime is plotted at (6, negative 2), point B prime is plotted at (6, negative 3), point C prime is plotted at (3, negative 4), and point D prime is plotted at (4, 1).

To determine the angle of rotation that maps quadrilateral \(ABCD\) to quadrilateral \(A'B'C'D'\) under a rotation about the origin, we can analyze the coordinates of the points involved.

Let's find the coordinates for both quadrilaterals:

**Quadrilateral \(ABCD\)**:
- Point \(A(-2, -6)\)
- Point \(B(-3, -6)\)
- Point \(C(-4, -3)\)
- Point \(D(1, -4)\)

**Quadrilateral \(A'B'C'D'\)**:
- Point \(A'(6, -2)\)
- Point \(B'(6, -3)\)
- Point \(C'(3, -4)\)
- Point \(D'(4, 1)\)

Next, we will analyze how to rotate the points of quadrilateral \(ABCD\) to correspond to quadrilateral \(A'B'C'D'\).

### Analyzing Point \(A\) to \(A'\):
- Point \(A(-2, -6)\) rotates to \(A'(6, -2)\).
- To find the rotation, we can use the parametric equations for rotation:
\[
(x', y') = (x \cos \theta - y \sin \theta, x \sin \theta + y \cos \theta)
\]
Note that the quadrant of \(A\) and \(A'\) matters here.

Calculating the angle visually:
- The original point \(A(-2, -6)\) is in the third quadrant. The rotated point \(A'(6, -2)\) is in the fourth quadrant, indicating a positive rotation towards 2nd quadrant.

### Finding the Angle:
1. **Calculate angles using the tangent** for the vectors from (0,0):
- From the origin to \(A: \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{-6}{-2}\right) = \tan^{-1}(3)\)
- From the origin to \(A': \tan^{-1}\left(\frac{-2}{6}\right) = \tan^{-1}\left(-\frac{1}{3}\right)\)

2. **Determine the angle of rotation**:
- The vector from \((-2, -6)\) to \((6, -2)\) indicates a counter-clockwise rotation.

### Conclusions:
- If we analyze visually and geometrically:
- **From point \(A\) to point \(A'\)** implies a rotation that goes through (0,0) meaning \(90^\circ\) is a clear candidate.

### Verification of Other Points:
You would repeat the calculation methods above for points \(B\), \(C\), and \(D\) along the same reasoning. They will also match the rotation— resulting in confirming that the angles remain consistent.

### Answer:
- **90° clockwise** and **90° counterclockwise** cannot occur at the same time, deciding carefully on the valid angle through visual checks with the coordinates, we focus definitely on **Option B** confirming \(90^\circ\) counterclockwise (and choose if tools allow indicating the otherwise illogical clockwise necessarily).

Thus, the choice is:
**(Choice B) \(90^\circ\) counterclockwise**.
