69. Rotating Coordinate Systems The `xyx y`-coordinate system is rotated through the angle `45∘45^{\circ}` to obtain the `x′y′x^{\prime} y^{\prime}`-coordinate system. (a) If the coordinates of a point in the `xyx y`-coordinate system are `(1,2)(1,2)`, what are the coordinates of the rotated point in the `x′y′x^{\prime} y^{\prime}`-coordinate system? (b) If the coordinates of a point in the `x′y′x^{\prime} y^{\prime}`-coordinate system are `(1,2)(1,2)`, what are the coordinates of the point in the `xyx y`-coordinate system that was rotated to it?
