Question

Can someone please help? A ferris wheel is drawn on a coordinate plane so that the first car is located at the point ​(0​,10​). What are the coordinates of the first car after a rotation of 270 degrees counterclockwise about the​ origin?

Answer 1

(10,0)

Explanation:

When it comes to rotations by 90 degrees or 270 degrees, you just have to switch the order of x- and y- coordinates. Then find the sign by considering which quadrant will it be. In this case, it is originally on the positive y-axis and now it would be +ve x-axis.
