Given a point (1, 2) on a geometric figure, what is the new point when the figure is rotated clockwise about the origin 180 degrees?

1 answer

When a point is rotated clockwise about the origin 180 degrees, the x-coordinate of the point is negated, and the y-coordinate of the point is negated.

So, the new point when (1, 2) is rotated clockwise 180 degrees about the origin is (-1, -2).
