pe exam health & skill components
when striking a ball with a tennis racquet, one should
look away from the ball.
take a step with the same foot as the striking arm.
take a step with the opposite foot as the striking arm.
stop the racquet as soon as it makes contact with the ball.

Explanation:

Looking away from the ball reduces accuracy; stepping with the same foot as the striking arm disrupts balance; stopping the racquet on contact reduces power and control. Stepping with the opposite foot of the striking arm is standard tennis technique, as it stabilizes the body, generates momentum, and improves striking accuracy.

Answer:

take a step with the opposite foot as the striking arm.
