Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Rotate the point (3, 4) 180° about the origin. What are the new coordinates?
[2 marks]
2.
Plot the point (-2, 5) and rotate it 180° about the origin on the grid. Write the new coordinates.
[2 marks]
3.
Construct a point at (6, -3). Rotate it 180° about the point (2, -1). What are the new coordinates?
[3 marks]
4.
Explain the rule for rotating any point 180° about the origin. Use an example in your explanation.
[3 marks]
5.
A shape is rotated 180° about a point P. How will the shape's position change relative to P? Explain in two sentences.
[3 marks]
6.
On the grid, plot a point at (1, -2). Rotate it 180° about (0, 0). Write the coordinates of the new point.
[2 marks]
7.
Construct a triangle with vertices at (2, 3), (4, 1), and (3, 4). Rotate the triangle 180° about the origin. What are the new coordinates of each vertex?
[4 marks]
8.
Which of the following points, when rotated 180° about the origin, results in the point (5, -3)? A) (5, -3) B) (-5, 3) C) (-5, -3) D) (3, 5)
[1 mark]
9.
A square has vertices at (1, 1), (1, 3), (3, 3), and (3, 1). Rotate it 180° about the point (2, 2). What are the new vertices?
[3 marks]
10.
Identify and correct the mistake: A student says that rotating (2, -5) 180° about the origin gives (2, -5). Is this correct? Why or why not?
[2 marks]
11.
Challenge: On a coordinate grid, you are given a point (x, y). Find the coordinates after rotating 180° about a point (a, b). Derive the general formula for the new coordinates.
[4 marks]
