Question

The point (4,3) is rotated 180° about the origin. What are the coordinates of this point after therotation?

Answer 1

(-4, -3)

Explanation:

We have the following point:

`(4,3)`

A 180° rotation complies with the following rule:

`\begin{gathered} P(x,y)\rightarrow P^(\prime)(-x,-y) \\ \text{therefore, in this case:} \\ (4,3)\rightarrow(-4,-3) \end{gathered}`

The point after the rotation is (-4, -3)
