First, identify what counterclockwise means. The way to remember is that counter means against.
Next, identify the points. U is at (2,-2), A is at (3, -2), G is at (1, -5), then N is at (2, -5). The next part is a bit tricky and uses your knowledge about the quadrants. So to go 90 degrees, I need to switch X and Y. and then because I went from Quadrant IV to Quadrant I, I turn all the negatives into positives. To go 180 degrees, I need to go from Quadrant IV to Quadrant II, so I need to switch their signs. To go 270 degrees, I need to switch their signs and then switch X and Y.
In this case, I only want to go 90 degrees, so lets switch X and Y and turn them all positive. U becomes U' (2,2). A becomes A' (2, 3). N becomes N' (5, 2). Finally G becomes G' at (5, 1)
