Given a point (1,2) on a geometric figure, what is the new point when the figures rotated clockwise about the origin 180°?
To find the new point when a figure is rotated clockwise about the origin by 180°, we need to change the sign of both the x-coordinate and y-coordinate of the given point.
Given point: (1, 2)
New point after rotating 180° clockwise:
x-coordinate = -1
y-coordinate = -2
Therefore, the new point is (-1, -2).
