- For problem 1, rotating the shape 90° counterclockwise around the origin transforms each point (x, y) to (-y, x). The original vertices at approximately (-4, -3), (1, -4), and (2, 1) become (3, -4), (4, 1), and (-1, 2) respectively.
- For problem 2, rotating the shape 270° clockwise is equivalent to rotating 90° counterclockwise. The original vertices at approximately (-2, 5), (4, 2), and (4, -2) become (-5, -2), (-2, 4), and (2, 4) respectively.
- For problem 3, rotating the shape 180° counterclockwise around the origin transforms each point (x, y) to (-x, -y). The original vertices at approximately (-2, -1), (4, -4), and (3, 5) become (2, 1), (-4, 4), and (-3, -5) respectively.
- For problem 4, rotating the shape 90° clockwise around the origin transforms each point (x, y) to (y, -x). The original vertices at approximately (1, 4), (5, 1), and (3, -7) become (4, -1), (1, -5), and (-7, -3) respectively.
