Solution

To rotate a point 90 degrees clockwise around the origin, you can use the rule (x, y) -> (y, -x).

Step 1: Identify the original coordinates. In this case, the original point L is (3,5).

Step 2: Apply the rotation rule. The x-coordinate becomes the y-coordinate and the y-coordinate becomes the negative x-coordinate.

So, for point L(3,5), the new coordinates L' would be (5, -3).
