The coordinates of LMN are L (4,5), M (5,-2), and N (0,0). If the triangle is rotated 270° about point N, what are the coordinates of M?

(-5,2)
(-5,-2)
(-2,5)
(-2,-5)

Respuesta :

Answer: (-2,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The rotation rule for rotating a figure about [tex]270^{\circ}[/tex] is given by :-

[tex](x,y)\to (y,-x)[/tex] , where (x,y) is the coordinates for pre-image and (y,-x) is the coordinates for image.       (1)

Given : The coordinates of LMN are L (4,5), M (5,-2), and N (0,0).

If the triangle is rotated 270° about point N

Then, the coordinates of M , will be :

[tex](5,-2)\to (-2,-5)[/tex]   (Using the rule described in (1))

Hence, the coordinates of M after rotated 270° about point N=(-2,-5).
