Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Plot the point (3, 2) on the grid. Rotate it 90° anticlockwise about the origin and write down the new coordinates.
[2 marks]
2.
A triangle has vertices at (1, 4), (4, 2), and (2, 1). Construct the triangle and then rotate it 90° anticlockwise about the origin. Record the new coordinates of the vertices.
[3 marks]
3.
What is the rule for rotating a point (x, y) 90° anticlockwise about the origin?
[2 marks]
4.
Plot the point (-5, 3). Rotate it 90° anticlockwise about the origin and write down its new coordinates.
[2 marks]
5.
A rectangle has vertices at (2, 1), (5, 1), (5, 4), and (2, 4). Construct the rectangle and perform a 90° anticlockwise rotation about the origin. List the new coordinates.
[3 marks]
6.
Explain why the point (0, 5) stays on the same line after a 90° anticlockwise rotation about the origin.
[2 marks]
7.
Construct a right-angled triangle with vertices at (1, 1), (4, 1), and (1, 4). Rotate it 90° anticlockwise about the origin. What are the new coordinates?
[3 marks]
8.
A real-world scenario: A car parked at point (3, 2) needs to be moved by rotating it 90° anticlockwise about the origin. If the car's front is at (3, 2), where will it be after rotation?
[3 marks]
9.
Identify and correct the mistake in this rotation: A student rotates the point (4, -3) and claims the new point is (-3, -4). Is this correct? Explain.
[3 marks]
10.
Construct a parallelogram with vertices at (1, 1), (4, 1), (3, 4), and (0, 4). Rotate it 90° anticlockwise about the origin and record the new vertices.
[3 marks]
11.
Challenge: If a line passes through the points (2, 3) and (4, 5), find the new coordinates of these points after rotating 90° anticlockwise about the origin. Then, find the equation of the new line.
[4 marks]
