Demonstrating the properties of rotations, if a line segment with endpoints (0, -3) and (0, -7) is rotated 90° clockwise, what is an endpoint of this rotated segment? (1 point)
• (0, 3)
• (3, 0)
0 (0, 7)
(-3, 0)
To rotate a point 90° clockwise, we need to swap the x and y coordinates and negate the new x coordinate.
The given endpoints are (0, -3) and (0, -7).
For the first endpoint, (0, -3), swapping the x and y coordinates gives us (-3, 0). Negating the new x coordinate, we get the new endpoint after rotation: (-3, 0).
Therefore, an endpoint of the rotated segment is (-3, 0).
