If a figure has a vertex, (x, y) and it is rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise, the corresponding vertex of the new image would have a coordinate of (- x, - y)

Looking at the given figure, we would compare the corresponding coordinates of a given vertex. Looking at vertex A,

For the original figure, the coordinate is (1, 3)

For the ratated figure, the coordinate of A' is (- 1, - 3)

This corresponds to what was we stated earlier

Thus, it was rotated 180 degrees in the counterclockwise direction
