The point (-4, 1) is rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise using center (-3, 0). What are the coordinates of the image?

The point 4 1 is rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise using center 3 0 What are the coordinates of the image class=


Answer :

The coordinates of the image is (4,-1) that is option D) is correct.

According to the question we have been given that

        the point to be rotated = (-4,1)

           center = (-3,0)

        Rotation = 180° counterclockwise.

Note that when the point is rotated 180° counterclockwise then the coordinate of the image point will be

   (x , y ) = (-x , - y)

For the coordinates of the image first we translate the center to the origin that is

    (-3,0) = (-3+3,0) = (0,0)

Now we will do same for the point that is,

   (-4 , 1) = (-4+3 , 1) = (-1,1)

Now the points are (-1,1). Thus the image will be  

   (-1,1) = (-(-1), -1) = (1,-1)

Now undoing the original translation :

  (1,-1) = (1+3,-1) = (4,-1)

Hence the coordinates of the image is (4,-1) that is option D) is correct.
