A coordinate plane with 4 quadrants shows x and y axes ranging from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 1. Two rectangles are formed by lines joining four plotted points each. The coordinates of the plotted points for first rectangle joined by solid lines are left parenthesis negative 1 comma negative 2 right parenthesis, left parenthesis negative 3 comma negative 2 right parenthesis, left parenthesis negative 3 comma negative 7 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis negative 1 comma negative 7 right parenthesis. The coordinates for the second rectangle joined by lines made of dashes and dots are left parenthesis 2 comma 3 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 7 comma 3 right parenthesis, left parenthesis 7 comma 5 right parenthesis, and left parenthesis 2 comma 5 right parenthesis.To show that the rectangle in Quadrant III is congruent to the rectangle in Quadrant I, Darnell rotates the first rectangle 90 degrees clockwise into Quadrant II. What is his next step?(1 point)translate ()

1 answer

After Darnell rotates the first rectangle (the one in Quadrant III) 90 degrees clockwise into Quadrant II, the next step is to translate the now-rotated rectangle to align it with the second rectangle in Quadrant I.

To find the correct translation, he needs to determine the coordinates of the corners of the newly rotated rectangle to see how far they are from the corresponding corners of the second rectangle. After calculating, he can apply the translation to get them to be congruent and in the same position as the second rectangle.

Thus, the answer to your question is:

Translate the rotated rectangle to align with the second rectangle.
