Urgent matrices help!!!

Work out the matrix that transforms the unit square by a 270 degrees rotation about O.
Which way do I rotate it? Clockwise or anti clockwise? I don't need the question answered, I can do that myself I just don't know what way to rotate it
The convention is usually anti-clockwise but I still think the question is ambiguous.

But why is it anti clockwise?

Positive rotation is anti clockwise.
