Math Problem Statement
Solution
The problem asks for the coordinates of the vertices after a 180° counterclockwise rotation around the origin. Here's how to solve it:
Step-by-step explanation:
-
Rule for 180° Counterclockwise Rotation: When you rotate a point by 180° counterclockwise around the origin, the new coordinates will be . This is because a 180° rotation flips both the x- and y-coordinates.
-
Identify the coordinates of the original vertices (from the graph):
-
Apply the rotation rule:
- For , the new coordinates will be .
- For , the new coordinates will be .
- For , the new coordinates will be .
- For , the new coordinates will be .
Final coordinates after rotation:
