Question

What is the image of the point (0,5) after a rotation of 180° counterclockwise about

the origin?

Answer 1

(0, -5)

Explanation:

When we rotate a point around the origin 180°, the original coordinates (x, y) become (-x, -y).

So,

-0 is just 0 (since 0 is both negative and positive)

-(5) is -5

This makes our new point (0, -5).

Hope this helped!
