You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Rule: The point (x,y) will turn into (-x,-y) after you rotate the initial point 180 degrees clockwise about the origin.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So in this case, (x,y) = (3,-2) turns into (-x,-y) = (-3,2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The image is (-3,2)\r
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Notice how the image, preimage, and origin all lie on the same straight line (dashed purple line).\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Note: the preimage is the initial starting point (3,-2) and the image is the final ending point (-3,2) after the rotation. \n" ); document.write( "
