Explanation:

To rotate a point \((x, y)\) \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise about the origin, we use the rule: \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\). First, we need to determine the original coordinates of each point from the grid. Let's assume the original coordinates (by analyzing the grid, we'll estimate the positions):

- Let's find original coordinates:
- Point \(C\): Let's say original \(C\) is \((1, 4)\) (assuming grid units, we need to check the grid. Wait, actually, looking at the graph, let's get precise coordinates. Let's assume the origin is at (0,0), and each grid is 1 unit. Let's find the original coordinates:

Looking at the graph:

- \(C\): Let's say original \(C\) is \((1, 4)\) (x=1, y=4)
- \(D\): Original \(D\) is \((1, 6)\) (x=1, y=6)
- \(E\): Original \(E\) is \((3, 6)\) (x=3, y=6)
- \(F\): Original \(F\) is \((5, 5)\) (x=5, y=5)
- \(G\): Original \(G\) is \((5, 3)\) (x=5, y=3)
- \(H\): Original \(H\) is \((3, 2)\) (x=3, y=2)

Now apply the \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise rotation rule \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\):

Step 1: Rotate \(C(1, 4)\)

Using the rule \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\), so \(C'(4, -1)\)? Wait, no, wait, maybe I got the original coordinates wrong. Wait, maybe the original coordinates are with respect to the grid. Wait, maybe the x and y are positive. Wait, maybe the original coordinates are:

Wait, maybe I made a mistake. Let's re-examine. Let's assume the original coordinates (let's check the position relative to the origin. Let's say the origin is at (0,0), and the graph is in the first quadrant. Let's find the original coordinates:

- \(C\): Let's say original \(C\) is \((1, 4)\) (x=1, y=4)
- \(D\): \((1, 6)\)
- \(E\): \((3, 6)\)
- \(F\): \((5, 5)\)
- \(G\): \((5, 3)\)
- \(H\): \((3, 2)\)

Now, applying \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise rotation: the formula is \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\). Wait, no, actually, the correct rule for \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise (or \(90^\circ\) clockwise) is \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\)? Wait, no, let's recall:

- \(90^\circ\) counterclockwise: \((x, y) \to (-y, x)\)
- \(180^\circ\) counterclockwise: \((x, y) \to (-x, -y)\)
- \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise: \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\)
- \(90^\circ\) clockwise: \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\) (same as \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise)

Wait, let's confirm with an example. If we have a point (1, 0), rotating \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise around the origin: it should go to (0, 1)? Wait, no. Wait, (1,0) rotated \(90^\circ\) counterclockwise is (0,1), \(180^\circ\) is (-1,0), \(270^\circ\) is (0,-1). Wait, so maybe my formula was wrong. Let's derive it.

The rotation matrix for \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise is:

\[ \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ -1 & 0 \end{pmatrix} \]

So applying to vector \(\begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix}\), we get:

\[ \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ -1 & 0 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} y \\ -x \end{pmatrix} \]

Wait, but when we rotate (1,0) with this matrix, we get (0, -1), which is correct (since rotating (1,0) 270 degrees counterclockwise around the origin: from the positive x-axis, rotating 270 degrees counterclockwise is towards the negative y-axis, so (0, -1)). So the rule is \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\).

Now, let's find the original coordinates correctly. Let's look at the graph:

- Point \(C\): Let's say on the grid, the x-coordinate (horizontal) and y-coordinate (vertical). Let's assume the origin is at (0,0), and each grid square is 1 unit. Let's find the coordinates:

Looking at the graph, the points are in the first quadrant (since both x and y are positive). Let's find the coordinates:

- \(C\): Let's say x=1, y=4 (so (1,4))
- \(D\): x=1, y=6 (so (1,6))
- \(E\): x=3, y=6 (so (3,6))
- \(F\): x=5, y=5 (so (5,5))
- \(G\): x=5, y=3 (so (5,3))
- \(H\): x=3, y=2 (so (3,2))

Now apply the \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise rotation rule \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\):

For \(C(1, 4)\):

\(x = 1\), \(y = 4\)
New coordinates: \((y, -x) = (4, -1)\)? Wait, but that would be in the fourth quadrant. But maybe the original coordinates are different. Wait, maybe I mixed up x and y. Wait, maybe the coordinates are (x, y) where x is the horizontal (right) and y is vertical (up). So when we rotate \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise, the formula is \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\). But let's check with a point (2,3). Rotating \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise: the rotation matrix is \(\begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ -1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}\), so \(\begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ -1 & 0 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} 2 \\ 3 \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 3 \\ -2 \end{pmatrix}\), which is (3, -2). So that's correct.

But maybe the original coordinates are (x, y) with x positive (right) and y positive (up), so after rotation, some points might have negative x or y. But let's confirm the original coordinates again. Maybe the original coordinates are:

Looking at the graph, let's count the grid squares. Let's assume the origin is at (0,0), and each grid is 1 unit. Let's find the coordinates:

- \(C\): Let's say x=1, y=4 (so (1,4))
- \(D\): x=1, y=6 (so (1,6))
- \(E\): x=3, y=6 (so (3,6))
- \(F\): x=5, y=5 (so (5,5))
- \(G\): x=5, y=3 (so (5,3))
- \(H\): x=3, y=2 (so (3,2))

Now apply the rotation:

\(C(1, 4)\):

\((x, y) \to (y, -x) = (4, -1)\) → \(C'(4, -1)\)

\(D(1, 6)\):

\((x, y) \to (y, -x) = (6, -1)\) → \(D'(6, -1)\)

\(E(3, 6)\):

\((x, y) \to (y, -x) = (6, -3)\) → \(E'(6, -3)\)

\(F(5, 5)\):

\((x, y) \to (y, -x) = (5, -5)\) → \(F'(5, -5)\)

\(G(5, 3)\):

\((x, y) \to (y, -x) = (3, -5)\) → \(G'(3, -5)\)

\(H(3, 2)\):

\((x, y) \to (y, -x) = (2, -3)\) → \(H'(2, -3)\)

Wait, but maybe the original coordinates are different. Maybe I made a mistake in the original coordinates. Let's re-examine the graph. The graph is on a grid, with the origin at the center (the intersection of the x and y axes). Let's find the original coordinates:

Looking at point \(C\): it's 1 unit to the right of the y-axis (x=1) and 4 units above the x-axis (y=4). So (1,4).

Point \(D\): 1 unit right (x=1), 6 units up (y=6): (1,6)

Point \(E\): 3 units right (x=3), 6 units up (y=6): (3,6)

Point \(F\): 5 units right (x=5), 5 units up (y=5): (5,5)

Point \(G\): 5 units right (x=5), 3 units up (y=3): (5,3)

Point \(H\): 3 units right (x=3), 2 units up (y=2): (3,2)

Now applying the \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise rotation rule \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\):

- \(C(1,4)\) → \(C'(4, -1)\)
- \(D(1,6)\) → \(D'(6, -1)\)
- \(E(3,6)\) → \(E'(6, -3)\)
- \(F(5,5)\) → \(F'(5, -5)\)
- \(G(5,3)\) → \(G'(3, -5)\)
- \(H(3,2)\) → \(H'(2, -3)\)

But maybe the original coordinates are (x, y) with x and y positive, and the rotation is \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise, so the new coordinates are as above.

Wait, but maybe I mixed up the rotation direction. Wait, \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise is the same as \(90^\circ\) clockwise. The rule for \(90^\circ\) clockwise is \((x, y) \to (y, -x)\), which is the same as \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise. So that's correct.

Alternatively, maybe the original coordinates are (x, y) where x is the horizontal (right) and y is vertical (up), and the rotation is \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise, so the formula is correct.

So the coordinates after rotation are:

- \(C'\): (4, -1)
- \(D'\): (6, -1)
- \(E'\): (6, -3)
- \(F'\): (5, -5)
- \(G'\): (3, -5)
- \(H'\): (2, -3)

But let's check again. Maybe the original coordinates are different. Let's count the grid squares again. Let's assume the origin is at (0,0), and each grid is 1 unit. Let's find the coordinates:

Looking at point \(C\): it's 1 unit to the right of the y-axis (x=1) and 4 units above the x-axis (y=4). So (1,4). Correct.

Point \(D\): 1 unit right (x=1), 6 units up (y=6): (1,6). Correct.

Point \(E\): 3 units right (x=3), 6 units up (y=6): (3,6). Correct.

Point \(F\): 5 units right (x=5), 5 units up (y=5): (5,5). Correct.

Point \(G\): 5 units right (x=5), 3 units up (y=3): (5,3). Correct.

Point \(H\): 3 units right (x=3), 2 units up (y=2): (3,2). Correct.

Applying the rotation:

- \(C(1,4)\): \( (4, -1) \)
- \(D(1,6)\): \( (6, -1) \)
- \(E(3,6)\): \( (6, -3) \)
- \(F(5,5)\): \( (5, -5) \)
- \(G(5,3)\): \( (3, -5) \)
- \(H(3,2)\): \( (2, -3) \)

So these are the coordinates after \(270^\circ\) counterclockwise rotation about the origin.

Answer:

• \(C'(4, -1)\)
• \(D'(6, -1)\)
• \(E'(6, -3)\)
• \(F'(5, -5)\)
• \(G'(3, -5)\)
• \(H'(2, -3)\)
