Question

When a point (2, -4) is rotated counter-clockwise about the origin. Find the coordinate after the rotation of 90 rotation.

  1. (2, 4)
  2. (2, -4)
  3. (4, 2)
  4. (-4, -2)

hintHint:

after 4 rotation which is equal to 360 degree it again come to same place
so actual rotation = remainder of =   rotation divide by 4  =  90 divide by 4 =  2  remainder

The correct answer is: (4, 2)


    there are total of 90 rotations , but after 4 rotation it come again to same state
    so effective number of rotations = remainder of ( rotations/4 )  = remainder( 90/4 ) =  2
    so , there are 2 , effective rotations
    For a rotation of 90o, (a, b) → (-b, a).
    For again a rotation of 90, (-b, a) → (-a, -b).
    (2, -4)→ (4, 2)
    (4, 2)  →  ( -2 , 4 )
    ( -2 , 4 )  , is the final position after 90 rotations each of 90 degrees .
