Question

The point n (-2,-3) is rotated 180 degrees clockwise about the origin. What are the coordinates of n'?

Answer 1

n' (2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation

We have the point n (-2, -3) and we need to rotate it 180 degrees clockwise about the origin.

A 180 degree clockwise rotation about the origin takes changes point A(x, y) as follows:

A(x, y) => A'(-x, -y)

This means that point n becomes:

n(-2, -3) => n'(-(-2), -(-3))

=> n' (2, 3)

Those are the coordinates of n'.
