1. a square has vertices at (2, 2), (2, 6), (6, 6), and (6, 2). what are the coordinates of the vertex (6, 2) after a 180-degree rotation?

a. $(6, -2)$
b. $(-6, -2)$
c. $(-6, 2)$
d. $(6, 2)$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall 180° rotation rule

For a point $(x,y)$, 180° rotation gives $(-x,-y)$.

Step2: Apply rule to $(6,2)$

Substitute $x=6$, $y=2$ into the rule: $(-6, -2)$

Answer:

b. $(-6,-2)$
