Rectangle 2 is the image of rectangle 1 after it rotates 90 degrees clockwise.

<h3>How to determine the degree of rotation?</h3>

The given parameters are:

<u>Rectangle 1</u>

(1, -2), (4,-2), (4,-3) and (1, -3)

<u>Rectangle 2</u>

(-3, -1), (-2,-1), (-2, -4,) and (-3, -4)

By comparing the coordinates, we can see that the rule of transformation is:

(x,y) ⇒ (y,-x)

The above rule represents a 90° clockwise rotation

Hence, rectangle 2 is the image of rectangle 1 after it rotates 90 degrees clockwise.
