For this case we know that the vertex P has the following coordinates:


P=(-3,2)

And we want to find the coordinates after rotate 180 degrees about the origin we assume that the translation is anticlockwise so then we just need to do the following :


P^(\prime)=(-x,-y)=(3,-2)

And then the solution ofr this case would be (3,-2)
