Answer:

C) rotation 180° about the origin

Explanation:

Rotation by 90° or 270° will move a figure from one quadrant to an adjacent quadrant. Your figure has moved to the opposite quadrant, so its rotation must be 180°.

__

You have probably seen the transformations ...

(x, y) ⇒ (-y, x) . . . . . rotation 90° CCW or 270° CW

(x, y) ⇒ (-x, -y) . . . . . rotation 180°

(x, y) ⇒ (y, -x) . . . . . . rotation 90° CW or 270° CCW

For rotations through other angles, the relation is ...

(x, y) ⇒ (x·cos(θ)-y·sin(θ), x·sin(θ)+y·cos(θ)) . . . . rotation CCW by angle θ

__

If you compare the above transformations to the given pairs of coordinates, you see the coordinates correspond to rotation by 180°. (Both x- and y-values are negated, but not swapped.)
