Answer:


(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,-y)

Explanation:

We are asked to find the the algebraic rule describes the 180° counterclockwise rotation about the origin .

We know that when we rotate a point 180° counterclockwise rotation about the origin , the x and y-coordinates change their sign.


(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,-y)

Therefore, our required rule is
(x,y)\rightarrow (-x,-y).
