Question

Use the image to answer the question.

A coordinate plane with 4 quadrants ranges from negative 7 to 7 in unit increments on both the x and y axes. Eight points are plotted and labeled from upper A to upper H. The plotted points are as follows: In quadrant 1, point upper H is shown at 1 increment on the x-axis and 4 increments on the y-axis. Point upper A is shown at 4 increments on the x-axis and 1 increment on the y-axis. In quadrant 2, point upper G is shown at negative 1 increment on the x-axis and 4 increments on the y-axis. Point upper F is shown at negative 4 increments on the x-axis and 1 increment on the y-axis. In quadrant 3, point upper E is shown at negative 4 increments on the x-axis and negative 1 increment on the y-axis. Point upper D is shown at negative 1 increment on the x-axis and negative 4 increments on the y-axis. In quadrant 4, point upper C is shown at 1 increment on the x-axis and negative 4 increments on the y-axis. Point upper B is shown at 4 points on the x-axis and negative 1 increment on the y-axis.

Point A
is the original point before rotating. Which point represents A′
after A(4, 1)
is rotated 90°
counterclockwise: B
, C
, D
, E
, F
, G
, or H
?

(1 point)
Incorrect

Remember that 90°
equals a right angle. Rotating a figure 360° would be a complete circle and put the figure exactly where it started. 90°
is a quarter turn, or 1/4 of the whole circle.

Answer 1

A(4,1) rotated 90° counterclockwise about the origin goes to (-y, x) = (-1, 4), which is point G.
