It will go from Quadrant 2      to  Quadrant 3   and will be   -5, -7

 

"I don't do math"   better learn 'to do'  math or  " I don't do math"  will never get far in this world.  cheeky

 

     and I won't get much further if I make MISTAKES at math !!    Corrected my typo

A 270°  clockwise rotation   is the  same as  a  -90°  counter-clockwise  rotation

 

Let ( x, y)  be  the original   point  = ( -7, 5)

 

A 90°  counter-clockwise  rotation  gives  us  (-y, x)   =   (-5, -7)

 

Here's the  graph  :

Let \(270^\circ\) clockwise rotation = \(90^\circ\) counter clockwise  rotation

 

\(\begin{array}{|lrcll|} \hline & && \text{complex} \\ \hline (-7,\ 5) \rightarrow & && ( -7+5i) \\ & && ( -7+5i)\times i & \times i ~(\text{ $90^\circ$ counter clockwise rotation}) \\ & &=&-7i+5i\times i \\ & &=&-7i+5i^2 \quad i^2 = -1 \\ & &=&-7i-5\\ (-5,\ -7) \leftarrow & &=&(-5-7i)\\ \hline \end{array} \)
