problem

A triangle with vertices A(0,2)A(0, 2), B(−3,2)B(-3, 2), and C(−3,0)C(-3, 0) is reflected about the xx-axis, then the image triangle $A'B'C'$ is rotated counterclockwise about the origin by 90∘90^{\circ} to produce triangle $A''B''C''$. Which of the following transformations will return triangle $A''B''C''$ to triangle ABCABC? (A) counterclockwise rotation about the origin by 90∘90^{\circ}. (B) clockwise rotation about the origin by 90∘90^{\circ}. (C) reflection about the xx-axis (D) reflection about the line y=xy = x (E) reflection about the yy-axis.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
A triangle with vertices A(0,2), B(−3,2), and C(−3,0) is reflected about the x-axis, then the image triangle $A'B'C'$ is rotated counterclockwise about the origin by 90^(∘) to produce triangle $A''B''C''$. Which of the following transformations will return triangle $A''B''C''$ to triangle ABC?

(A) counterclockwise rotation about the origin by 90^(∘).
(B) clockwise rotation about the origin by 90^(∘).
(C) reflection about the x-axis
(D) reflection about the line y=x
(E) reflection about the y-axis.
Original LaTeX notation
A triangle with vertices $A(0, 2)$, $B(-3, 2)$, and $C(-3, 0)$ is reflected about the $x$-axis, then the image triangle $A'B'C'$ is rotated counterclockwise about the origin by $90^{\circ}$ to produce triangle $A''B''C''$. Which of the following transformations will return triangle $A''B''C''$ to triangle $ABC$?

(A) counterclockwise rotation about the origin by $90^{\circ}$.
(B) clockwise rotation about the origin by $90^{\circ}$.
(C) reflection about the $x$-axis
(D) reflection about the line $y = x$
(E) reflection about the $y$-axis.
