Answer

$T=\left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} & \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \\ -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} & \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\end{array}\right]$

Work Step by Step

Given: points are rotated about the origin through $-\frac{\pi}{4}$ radians. General rotation matrix for rotation about the origin through $\theta$ radians: \[ T=\left[\begin{array}{cc} \cos \theta & -\sin \theta \\ \sin \theta & \cos \theta \end{array}\right] \] Replace $\theta$ by $-\frac{\pi}{4}$ and evaluate: \[ T=\left[\begin{array}{cc} \cos -\frac{\pi}{4} & -\sin -\frac{\pi}{4} \\ \sin -\frac{\pi}{4} & \cos -\frac{\pi}{4} \end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc} \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} & \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \\ -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} & \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \end{array}\right] \]
