Angle ABC is formed by segments AB and BC on the following coordinate grid: A coordinate grid is shown from positive 6 to negati
ve 6 on the x-axis and from positive 6 to negative 6 on the y-axis. A line segment AB is shown with A as ordered pair 1, negative 1 and B as ordered pair 5, negative 4. Another line segment BC is shown with C as ordered pair 1, negative 4. Angle ABC is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin to form angle A'B'C'. Which statement shows the measure of angle A'B'C'? A) m∠ A'B'C' = 90 degrees B) m∠ A'B'C' = m∠ABC C) m∠ A'B'C' = 180 degrees D) m∠ A'B'C' = 2 ⋅ m∠ABC

<h2>Answer:</h2>
Option: B is the correct answer.
B) m∠ A'B'C' = m∠ABC
<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>We are given coordinates of Point A,B and C as:
A(1,-1) , B(5,-4) and C(1,-4)
Since, on rotating the points 90 degree counterclockwise about the origin the rule that holds for this transformation is:
(x,y) → (-y,x)
Hence,
A(1,-1) → A'(1,-1)
B(5,-4) → B'(4,-5)
C(1,-4) → C'(4,-1)
<em>As we know that the rotation is a rigid transformation that is the shape and size of the figure is preserved.</em>
<em>Also, the angle measure remains the same.</em>
Hence, m∠ABC=m∠A'B'C'

The equation looks like this 
. In an ellipse, a is always the bigger value, so a^2 = 25. This bigger value also tells us which axis is the major one. Sine the bigger value a is under the y^2 of the equation, the major axis is the y-axis. This is a vertical ellipse. The center is always found within a set of parenthesis that exist with the x^2 and the y^2. Since there are no parenthesis with either, there is no side to side movement, nor is there any up or down movement. So the center doesn't move from the origin (0, 0). The vertex is also along the major axis, and if a^2 is 25, then a = 5, so the vertices go up 5 from the center and down 5 from the center. Vertices are (0, 5) and (0, -5). The foci follow the formula 
. c is the distance that the foci are from the center. 
and c = 3. The foci also lie on the major axis, so the coordinates for the foci are (0, 3) and (0, -3). There you go!
