Given a point ( x, y ), what is the new point when the point is rotated counterclockwise about the origin 270 degrees?
To rotate a point counterclockwise about the origin, considering a rotation of 270 degrees, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of the point swap places, and the new y-coordinate becomes the opposite of the original x-coordinate.
Therefore, the new point will be (-y, x).

Apologies for the confusion. To rotate a point counterclockwise about the origin by 270 degrees, we can use the following formulas:
new_x = -y
new_y = x
So, if the given point is (x, y), the new point after rotating counterclockwise by 270 degrees would be (-y, x).
