Answer 1

To rotate a point 180 degrees counterclockwise around the origin, you can simply negate both coordinates of the point.

Given the point \( (-4, -6) \):

- The x-coordinate changes from -4 to 4.
- The y-coordinate changes from -6 to 6.

Thus, the new point after a 180-degree counterclockwise rotation is \( (4, 6) \).

The answer is \( (4, 6) \).
