Question

Elijah and William are playing a video game. In the game, Elijah's character is at a point

(-2,5) on the map. If William rotates Elijah's character clockwise by 180 degrees about
the origin, where will Elijah's character end up?
A. (-5, 2)
B. (5,-2)
C. (2,5)

Answer 1

the correct answer is B. (2,-5).

Explanation:

When William rotates Elijah's character clockwise by 180 degrees about the origin, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of the character will change signs.

Given that Elijah's character is at point (-2,5) on the map, rotating it by 180 degrees clockwise means the x-coordinate will change from -2 to 2, and the y-coordinate will change from 5 to -5.

Therefore, Elijah's character will end up at point (2,-5) on the map
