Answer:
Not the same.
Explanation:
Given that there is a rotation of 180 degrees . To check whether this is a reflection over the y axis.
Reflection over the y axis make the coordinates (x,y) as (-x,y)
i.e. this means rotation of 180 degrees about the origin anticlockwise.
Hence just rotation of 180 degrees is not the same as a reflection over y axis.
The conditions are:
i) 180 degree to be rotated anticlockwise
ii) Rotation is about the origin
Hence a rotation of 180 degrees need not always be the same as reflection over y axis.
