To find the coordinates of point \( T' \) after rotating rectangle MATH 180 degrees about the origin, we use the rotation mapping for a 180-degree rotation. The general rule for rotating a point \( (x, y) \) by 180 degrees about the origin is:

\[
(x, y) \rightarrow (-x, -y)
\]

Now, apply this transformation to the coordinates of point \( T \):

Given point \( T \) has coordinates \( (5, -1) \).

To find point \( T' \):

\[
T' = (-5, -(-1)) = (-5, 1)
\]

Thus, the coordinates of \( T' \) after the rotation are:

\[
T' = (-5, 1)
\]
