Given a point on a geometric figure 1, 2 what is the new point when the point is rotated clockwise about the origin 90°

Answer 1

To rotate a point (x, y) 90° clockwise about the origin, we can use the following formulas:

new_x = y
new_y = -x

Given the point (1, 2), we can find the new point after rotating it 90° clockwise:

new_x = 2
new_y = -1

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