Solution

Find the coordinates of image after rotation.

Given, coordinates are A(-4,2),B(-2,2) and C(-3,4).

Since, we know that rotation of 180° about the origin then coordinates changes as:

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

Using the above criteria of rotation for new coordinates are:

A(-4,2)=A'(4,-2)B(-2,2)=B'(2,-2)C(-3,4)=C'(3,-4)

Hence, the coordinates of image after rotation are A'(4,-2),B'(2,-2) and C'(-3,4).
