Answer 2

Is this in the topic of linear transformations for vectors? If so, then apply the matrix, do you know the appropriate matrix transformation?

Answer 3

Matrix? Uh.. No, not exactly..

Answer 4

in this case you maybe just want to note that 270°=90°+90°+90°

Answer 5

So it'd be in the third quadrant?

Answer 6

(-1,6)?

Answer 7

the third quadrant sounds right to me so far, I disagree with the point though, in your algebra course you might want to draw it out, or construct lines to show the rotation.

Answer 8

oh, oh, ohhh.. So it's (-6,-1) Right!?

Answer 9

exactly, well done.

Answer 10

Sweet, thank you a lot!

Answer 11

you're very welcome
