Hint 2 of 2
Each shaded square ends up on the exact opposite side of point F, the same distance away.
Show solution
Approach: turn the figure upside down about F
- A 180° turn around F sends every shaded square straight across F to the opposite side.
- This flips the picture both left-right and up-down at the same time.
- The option showing that upside-down arrangement is choice C.
