Rotations

Question 1 • High School Math 2 A

Which rule represents R0, 180°?

Answer
A
(x, y) → (–y, x)
B
(x, y) → (–x, –y)
C
(x, y) → (y, –x)
D
(x, y) → (y, x)

Explanation

A 180° rotation about the origin sends each point to the point directly opposite it, changing the signs of both coordinates. Thus (x, y) maps to (–x, –y), which is choice B.
