An illustration of a coordinate plane with four quadrants shows the x and y axes extending from negative 8 to 8 in increments of 1. A triangle A B C is plotted on the graph. The triangle A B C has its vertices marked with closed points at A left parenthesis 2 comma 6 right parenthesis, B left parenthesis 6 comma 4 right parenthesis, and C left parenthesis 2 comma 2 right parenthesis.
Given point A(2, 6)
on the triangle, what are the new coordinates of the point after the triangle is rotated 180 degrees counterclockwise?

To find the new coordinates of point A(2, 6) after a 180-degree counterclockwise rotation around the origin, you can use the following transformation rule:
For any point (x, y), after a 180-degree rotation, the new coordinates will be (-x, -y).
Applying this to point A(2, 6):
1. Take the x-coordinate: 2 → -2
2. Take the y-coordinate: 6 → -6
Thus, the new coordinates of point A after the 180-degree rotation will be:
A'(-2, -6).
For any point (x, y), after a 180-degree rotation, the new coordinates will be (-x, -y).
Applying this to point A(2, 6):
1. Take the x-coordinate: 2 → -2
2. Take the y-coordinate: 6 → -6
Thus, the new coordinates of point A after the 180-degree rotation will be:
A'(-2, -6).
