Rotate the point (−4, −6) on a geometric figure 90 degrees counterclockwise. What is the new point?(1 point) Responses
To rotate a point counterclockwise by 90 degrees, we can use the following rotation formula:
New x-coordinate = -y-coordinate of the original point
New y-coordinate = x-coordinate of the original point
Applying this formula to the point (-4, -6):
New x-coordinate = -(-6) = 6
New y-coordinate = -4
Therefore, the new point after rotating (-4, -6) 90 degrees counterclockwise is (6, -4).
