Q:

Which statement accurately describes how to perform a 180° rotation of point A (−2, 3) around the origin? A) Create a circle with the origin as its center and a radius of the origin and point A, then locate a point on the circle that is 180° from point A. B) Create a circle with point A as its center and a radius of the origin and point A, then locate a point on the circle that is 180° from point A. C) Create a line parallel to the x‒axis from point A, and locate a point on the perpendicular line that is equidistant to the distance between the y-axis and A. D) Create a line perpendicular to the y-axis from point A, and locate a point on the perpendicular line that is equidistant to the distance between the y-axis and A.

Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:A) Create a circle with the origin as its center and a radius of the origin and point A, then locate a point on the circle that is 180° from point A.Step-by-step explanation:The first step is to place your compass at the origin (0,0)Adjust the compass to a radius which equals the length of A from the originDraw the circle to locate the rotated point A' on the circle which is 180° from point A
