$C=(6,1/3)$

Explanation:

$"under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of "(3pi)/2$

$• " a point "(x,y)to(y,x)$

$rArrA(1,5)toA'(5,1)" where A' is the image of A"$

$rArrvec(CB)=color(red)(4)vec(CA')$

$rArrulb-ulc=4(ula'-ulc)$

$rArrulb-ulc=4ula'-4ulc$

$rArr3ulc=4ula'-ulb$

$color(white)(rArr3ulc)=4((5),(1))-((2),(3))$

$color(white)(rArr3ulc)=((20),(4))-((2),(3))=((18),(1))$

$rArrulc=1/3((18),(1))=((6),(1/3))$

$rArrC=(6,1/3)$
