what is the image of point (4,3) if the rotation is -180 degrees?

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Same as if the rotation was 180 degrees :-) |dw:1372917603805:dw|

OpenStudy (mathisfun13):

so its 180 degrees

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Yes, 180 and -180 degrees are equivalent rotations. Our point goes from (4,3) to (-4,-3), just as if you had turned the paper 2 90 degree turns either to the right or to the left.
