Answer:
(4, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
this is the same as a 90° rotation clockwise.
with the coordinates of (-5, 4) we start in the top left quadrant (x values are negative, y values are positive).
and we end up in the top right quadrant (x and y values are positive).
the line from the origin to the point is perpendicular (90° angle) to the line of the origin to the original point, as we just rotated by 90° or 270°.
that means the rules for the slope of perpendicular lines apply :
x and y coordinate differences trade places, and the sign of their ratio is flipped.
luckily, because the origin is the reference point for both lines, the point coordinates are automatically the coordinate differences to (0, 0).
and because we need to get 2 positive coordinates, that means
(-5, 4) turns into (4, 5)
as the alternative (-4, -5) would be in the bottom left quadrant.
