Maggie graphed the image of a 90 counterclockwise rotation about vertex a of . coordinates b and c of are (2, 6) and (4, 3) and coordinates b’ and c’ of it’s image are (–2, 2) and (1, 4). what is the coordinate of vertex a. (explain work)

A(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the vertex A has coordinates

Vectors AB and AB' are perpendicular, then

Vectors AC and AC' are perpendicular, then

Now, solve the system of two equations:

Subtract these two equations:

Substitute it into the first equation:

Then

Rotation by 90° counterclockwise about A(2,2) gives image points B' and C' (see attached diagram)

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
