To find the new coordinates of point A after the rotation and translation, perform each transformation step-by-step. After the translation, the new coordinates of points A, B, C, D, and E are: A(-2,-2), B(-3,1), C(-4,-1), D(-2,-3), and E(0,-1).

To find the new coordinates of point A after the rotation and translation, we need to perform each transformation step-by-step.

First, rotate ABCDE 180° clockwise around point A. This means we need to find the new positions of points B, C, D, and E. After the rotation, the new positions are: B(-3,3), C(-4,1), D(-2,-1), and E(0,1).

Next, we need to translate (move) the figure 2 units down. This means we need to subtract 2 from the y-coordinate of each point. After the translation, the new coordinates of points A, B, C, D, and E are: A(-2,-2), B(-3,1), C(-4,-1), D(-2,-3), and E(0,-1).
