$C=(-10,-16)$

Explanation:

$"under a counterclockwise rotation about the origin of "pi$

$• " a point "(x,y)to(-x,-y)$

$rArrA(3,7)toA'(-3,-7)" where A' is the image of A"$

$rArrvec(CB)=color(red)(2)vec(CA')$

$rArrulb-ulc=2(ula'-ulc)$

$rArrulb-ulc=2ula'-2ulc$

$rArrulc=2ula'-ulb$

$color(white)(rArrulc)=2((-3),(-7))-((4),(2))$

$color(white)(rArrulc)=((-6),(-14))-((4),(2))=((-10),(-16))$

$rArrC=(-10,-16)$
