Studdy Solution

STEP 1

What is this asking? We need to spin the triangle STUSTU around the origin 270270^\circ counter-clockwise and find the new locations of the corners! Watch out! Don't mix up clockwise and counter-clockwise rotations!
Also, remember that the origin is our center of rotation.

STEP 2

1. Rotation Rule
2. Rotate Point S
3. Rotate Point T
4. Rotate Point U

STEP 3

Let's remember the super cool rule for rotating a point (x,y)(x, y) counter-clockwise around the origin.
For a 270270^\circ rotation, the new point becomes (y,x)(y, -x).
Basically, the yy becomes the new xx, and the xx becomes the negative of the new yy!

STEP 4

Our **original point** SS is at (8,2)(8, 2).
Let's apply our **rotation rule**.
The yy **coordinate**, 22, becomes the new xx.
The xx **coordinate**, 88, becomes the negative of the new yy, which is 8-8.
So, SS' is at (2,8)(2, -8)!

STEP 5

TT starts at (6,6)(6, 6).
Using our **rotation rule**, the yy **coordinate**, 66, becomes the new xx.
The xx **coordinate**, 66, becomes the negative of the new yy, which is 6-6.
Therefore, TT' lands at (6,6)(6, -6)!

STEP 6

UU is originally at (2,2)(2, 2).
Applying the **rotation rule**, the yy **coordinate**, 22, becomes the new xx.
The xx **coordinate**, 22, becomes the negative of the new yy, giving us 2-2.
So, UU' is located at (2,2)(2, -2)!

STEP 7

SS' is at (2,8)(2, -8). TT' is at (6,6)(6, -6). UU' is at (2,2)(2, -2).
