3. Rotations
Sign In
Let's start by looking at the given polygon.
When a figure is rotated 180^(∘) counterclockwise about the origin, the coordinates of the image's vertices will change in the following way.
| Quadrilateral JKLM | (a,b) | (- a,- b) |
|---|---|---|
| J | (1,4) | (- 1,- 4) |
| K | (5,5) | (- 5, - 5) |
| L | (7, 2) | (- 7,- 2) |
| M | (2,2) | (- 2,- 2) |
Knowing the vertices of quadrilateral J'K'L'M', we can draw the image.
