90 degrees in which direction....clockwise or anticlockwise??

rotating cw : (5 ; 7)
rotating ccw : (-5 ; -7)

90 degrees in which direction? clockwise? counter-clockwise?

THE POINT (-5, 7) IS BEING USED FOR THE FOLLOWING MATH PROBLEMS:

if the point is being rotated 90 degrees clockwise, the answer is (7, 5). the rule for rotating any point 90 degrees clockwise is (x, y) ----> (y, -x).

if the point is being rotated 90 degrees counter-clockwise, the answer is (-7, -5). the rule for rotating any point 90 degrees counter-clockwise is (x, y) ----> (-y, x).

i know you didn't ask this, but if the point is being rotated 180 degrees in any direction, the answer is (5, -7). the rule for rotating any point 180 degrees in any direction is (x, y) ----> (-x, -y).

The coordinates of A are (-5, 7), just as they were given.

If the rotation is counterclockwise, the image of A is (-7, -5).

Answer to the trick question: The coordinates of A are (-5,7). ← ANSWER ❶
The position of A after rotation becomes A', but the original A remains static.

Now to find A'
Slipping from the real plane to complex numbers and back makes this simple:
Multiplying a complex number by i rotates the point 90°(anticlockwise by convention), and i²=-1
(-5,7) ≡ -5+7i
Rotation: (-5+7i)i = -5i+7i² = -7-5i ≡ (-7,-5) = A' ← ANSWER ❷

Original coordinates: (-5 , 7)
Angle of roration 90
x-new = x*cos( θ )-ysin( θ ) , θ = 90
= -5cos(90) - 7sin(90)
x-new = (-5)(0)-(7)(1) = -7
y-new = x*sins( θ)+ycos( θ ) , θ = 90
= -5sin(90) + 7cos(90)
y-new = (-5)(1)+(7)(0) = -5
Coordinates after rotation (-7,-5)

Which way? I'll suppose CCW.
Then the "new" A is at (-7,-5).
2016-06-06 8:05 pm
Well,

let's suppose counterclockwise .... (positive direction)
(0 -1)(-5)
(1 0)(7)
=
(-7)
(-5)
therefore, the image is the point A '(-7, -5) ... in this case... !! ;-)

hope it' ll help !!
