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

Answer:
The coordinates of the endpoints of the side congruent to side EF is:
E'(-8,-4) and F'(-5,-7).
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>" when point M (h, k) is rotated about the origin O through 90° in anticlockwise direction or we can say counter clockwise. The new position of point </em><em>M (h, k) will become M' (-k, h) "</em>
We are given a trapezoid such that the vertices of trapezoid are:
E(-4,8) , F(-7,5) , G(-4,3) , H(-2,5)
Then the new coordinates after the given transformation is:
E(-4,8) → E'(-8,-4)
F(-7,5) → F'(-5,-7)
G(-4,3) → G'(-3,-4)
H(-2,5) → H'(-5,-2)
Hence the coordinates of the endpoints of the side congruent to side EF is:
E'(-8,-4) and F'(-5,-7).

1. Take an arbitrary point that lies on the first line y=3x+10. Let x=0, then y=10 and point has coordinates (0,10).
2. Use formula to find the distance from point
to the line Ax+By+C=0.
The second line has equation y=3x-20, that is 3x-y-20=0. By the previous formula the distance from the point (0,10) to the line 3x-y-20=0 is:
.
3. Since lines y=3x+10 and y=3x-20 are parallel, then the distance between these lines are the same as the distance from an arbitrary point from the first line to the second line.
