What is the rule for a 270 degree counterclockwise rotation?

270 Degree Rotation

When rotating a point 270 degrees counterclockwise about the origin our point A(x,y) becomes A'(y,-x). This means, we switch x and y and make x negative.

Is 270 degrees clockwise the same as 90 degrees counterclockwise?

Rotating a figure 270 degrees clockwise is the same as rotating a figure 90 degrees counterclockwise.

How do you rotate 270 degrees clockwise around the origin?

Rotation by 270° about the origin:

The rule for a rotation by 270° about the origin is (x,y)→(y,−x) .

What are the rules for counterclockwise rotations?

Clockwise Rotations (CW) follow the path of the hands of a clock. These rotations are denoted by negative numbers. Counterclockwise Rotations (CCW) follow the path in the opposite direction of the hands of a clock. These rotations are denoted by positive numbers.
