Give point A (2, 6) on the triangle, what are the new coordinates of the point after the triangle is rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise?
To rotate a point 180 degrees counterclockwise, we can swap the sign of its x and y coordinates while keeping the same distance from the origin.
Given that point A has coordinates (2, 6), after rotating it 180 degrees counterclockwise, the new coordinates will be (-2, -6).
To find the new coordinates of a point after a rotation of 180 degrees counterclockwise, we need to use the following rotation formula:
x' = -x
y' = -y
Given the point A(2, 6), let's apply the rotation formula:
x' = -2
y' = -6
Therefore, after the triangle is rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise, the new coordinates of point A will be (-2, -6).
