Parallelogram JKLM is shown on the coordinate plane below:If parallelogram JKLM is rotated 270° clockwise around the origin, what are the coordinates of the endpoints of the side congruent to side JM in the image parallelogram?

Question
Answer:
Given that rotating 90 degrees clockwise around the origin switches the x andy values and makes the new y value negative, we can, for example, switch (2, 1) to (1, -2). 180 degrees clockwise simply makes both values negative (-2, -1), and 270 degrees clockwise switches them and makes the new y value negative  (-1, 2), we can plug those in to our JM endpoints to turn (-5, 1) into (-1, -5) and (-6, 2) into (-2, -6)
