The correct description of the coordinates of the new point after the triangle is rotated 90 degrees clockwise is (4, -2).
are you sure
Apologies for the confusion. The correct answer is (4, -2). When a point in Quadrant I is rotated 90 degrees clockwise, the y-coordinate becomes negative and the x-coordinate remains positive. Therefore, the new coordinates would be (4, -2).
