plz help Rectangle ABCD is congruent to rectangle. Which sequence of transformations could have been used to transform rectangle ABCD to produce rectangle ? A. Rectangle ABCD was rotated 90° clockwise around the origin and then translated 7 units left. B. Rectangle ABCD was rotated 90°counterclockwise around the origin and then reflected across the x-axis. C. Rectangle ABCD was rotated 90° counterclockwise around the origin and then translated 8 units down. D. Rectangle ABCD was rotated 90° clockwise around the origin and then reflected across the y-axis

there is a formula we can use to rotate about an angle
$$ R(90^\circ) = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & -1 \\[3pt] 1 & 0 \\ \end{bmatrix} $$
$$ \Large{ \begin{bmatrix} x' \\ y' \\ \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} \cos \theta & -\sin \theta \\ \sin \theta & \cos \theta \\ \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \\ \end{bmatrix} } $$
so the rotation of 90 degrees counter-clockwise causes $$ \Large (x,y) \to (-y, x ) $$
so lets look at the transformation of point B(3,1), which I picked arbitrarily first it rotates counterclockwise, then it translates down 8 units $$ \Large{ (3,1) \to (-1,3) \to (-1,3-8)= (-1, -5) } $$
