Math Problem Statement
Solution
To determine the coordinates of point after a 180° rotation about the origin, let's go through the steps.
Steps to Solve
-
Identify the Original Coordinates of Point A: Based on the image, it appears that point is located at .
-
Apply the Rotation Transformation: For a 180° rotation about the origin, the transformation rule is: So, we take the coordinates and apply this transformation:
-
Verify the Answer: The new coordinates of after a 180° rotation about the origin would be .
Conclusion
The correct answer is:
Would you like more details on rotation transformations or have any further questions?
Here are some related questions to expand your understanding:
- What are the rotation rules for 90° and 270° about the origin?
- How do the coordinates change with a 180° rotation about a point other than the origin?
- What is the effect of a 180° rotation on the orientation of a shape?
- Can you apply a rotation transformation to points in 3D space?
- How does rotating a point affect its distance from the origin?
Tip: For any 180° rotation, simply negate both the x- and y-coordinates of a point.
