Rotations

Question 3 • 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 across the origin. Both coordinates change sign, so (x, y) maps to (–x, –y). This is choice B.
