1. **Problem Statement:** Rotate the triangle with vertices at $A(2,2)$, $B(4,2)$, and $C(4,4)$ by 90° clockwise about the origin.
2. **Formula for 90° Clockwise Rotation:**
For any point $(x,y)$, the coordinates after a 90° clockwise rotation about the origin are given by:
$$ (x,y) \to (y, -x) $$
3. **Apply the rotation to each vertex:**
- For $A(2,2)$:
$$ (2,2) \to (2, -2) $$
- For $B(4,2)$:
$$ (4,2) \to (2, -4) $$
- For $C(4,4)$:
$$ (4,4) \to (4, -4) $$
4. **Result:**
The new vertices of the rotated triangle are:
$$ A'(2,-2), B'(2,-4), C'(4,-4) $$
This completes the 90° clockwise rotation about the origin.
