Let's pick the top-right vertex of Figure V, which appears to be at coordinates $(2, 4)$.
Let's also pick the bottom-left vertex, which is at the origin $(0, 0)$.

The top-right vertex of Figure W (corresponding to $(2,4)$ in V) appears to be at coordinates $(4, -2)$.
The bottom-left vertex of Figure W (corresponding to $(0,0)$ in V) is also at the origin $(0, 0)$.

• A translation 2 units left and 5 units up:

  • $(x, y) \to (x-2, y+5)$
  • $(2, 4) \to (2-2, 4+5) = (0, 9)$. This does not match $(4, -2)$.
  • $(0, 0) \to (0-2, 0+5) = (-2, 5)$. This does not match $(0, 0)$.

• A rotation 90° clockwise about the origin:

  • The rule for a 90° clockwise rotation about the origin is $(x, y) \to (y, -x)$.
  • Applying this to $(2, 4)$: $(2, 4) \to (4, -2)$. This matches the corresponding point in Figure W.
  • Applying this to $(0, 0)$: $(0, 0) \to (0, -0) = (0, 0)$. This matches the corresponding point in Figure W.
  • This transformation correctly maps Figure V to Figure W.

• A rotation 90° counterclockwise about the origin:

  • The rule for a 90° counterclockwise rotation about the origin is $(x, y) \to (-y, x)$.
  • Applying this to $(2, 4)$: $(2, 4) \to (-4, 2)$. This does not match $(4, -2)$.

• A translation 5 units right and 2 units down:

  • $(x, y) \to (x+5, y-2)$
  • $(2, 4) \to (2+5, 4-2) = (7, 2)$. This does not match $(4, -2)$.
  • $(0, 0) \to (0+5, 0-2) = (5, -2)$. This does not match $(0, 0)$.

The correct transformation is a rotation 90° clockwise about the origin.
