Figure EFGH on the grid below represents a trapezoidal plate at its starting position on a rotating surface:

(5, 7) and (3, 4) (−5, −7) and (−3, −4) (−5, −7) and (−8, −4)

What is the question you're trying to solve?

OpenStudy (hansc):

the first sentence i posted!

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

But I don't understand what you're trying to solve for. It just says that it's a trapezoidal plate shown during its original position.

OpenStudy (hansc):

he plate is rotated 90° about the origin in the counterclockwise direction. In the rotated trapezoid, what are the coordinates of the endpoints of the side congruent to side FG?

OpenStudy (hansc):

ohh sorry. thats the question

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

You need to review your rules of rotation for this question. When trying to figure out coordinates of the endpoints. When rotating a figure 90 degrees about the original in the counterclockwise direction you will have: \(\large (x, y) \rightarrow (-y, x)\)

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

But first what side is congruent to side FG?

OpenStudy (hansc):

5,7?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

What side is congruent to side FG? Numbers can't represent that yet (unless you're talking about the coordinates), only letters can.

OpenStudy (hansc):

f' g''

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

That is incorrect. "\(f'g''\)" does not mean anything in this case. I just need you to find the line that looks the same as line FG.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

o-o woah

OpenStudy (hansc):

could u help me @melody1590

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tbh i have no idea on this.

OpenStudy (hansc):

ohh thanks anywayyss @melody1590

OpenStudy (anonymous):
