A
30
Q

What is the matrix which represents an anticlockwise rotation through angle , ø, around the origin

A
31
Q

What are the 4 reflection matrices that you need to know?
State the matrices

A
32
Q

What is extremely important to remember when using the rotation matrix?

A

It is in an anticlockwise direction

33
Q

When using the rotation matrix, what is the invariant point?

A

0,0 (the origin)

34
Q

When using the rotation matrix, when is there no invariant lines?

A

When ø≠180

35
Q

When using the rotation matrix, when are there invariant lines and what are they?

A

When ø=180
Any line passing through the origin is an invariant line when ø=180

36
Q

When has an enlargement occurred?

A

When both sides have been enlarged by the same factor

37
Q

What do you do if you are asked to describe a stretch?

A

You need to state the scale factor for both sides

38
Q

What is the stretch matrix?

A
39
Q

Explain the core concept of the stretch matrix?

A

There is a stretch of scale factor a parallel to the x axis
There is a stretch of scale factor b parallel to they y axis

40
Q

When is the stretch matrix going to result in an enlargement?

A

When a=b

41
Q

What are the invariant lines in the stretch matrix?

What is the invariant point?

A

The x and y axis are invariant lines

The origin is the invariant point

42
Q

What will the simpler matrix be for a stretch only parallel to the x axis?

A
43
Q

What will the simpler matrix be for a stretch only parallel to the y axis?

A
44
Q

For a stretch parallel to the x axis only, what are the invariant points and lines?

A

For a stretch parallel to the x axis only, points on the y axis are invariant points and any line parallel to the x axis is an invariant line

45
Q

For a stretch parallel to the y axis only, what are the invariant points and lines?

A

For a stretch parallel to the y axis only, points on the x axis are invariant points and any line parallel to the y axis is an invariant line

46
Q

What is the geometry difference between Reflections and stretches?

A

Reflections preserve their shape and area
Rotations preserve their shape and area
Stretches don’t preserve their shape or area

47
Q

For a linear transformation represented by matM, what does detM represent?

A

Scale factor for the change in area
Aka, the area scale factor

48
Q

Using the determinant ow do you know that a reflection has occurred?

A

DetM will be negative so the area scale factor will be negative

49
Q

How can you calculate the area scale factor?

A

Finding detM
The area scale factor will be the linear scale actor squared

50
Q

What do you know about a non zero singular 2x2 matrix representing a linear transformation?

A

It will map any point in the plane onto a straight line through the origin

51
Q

What matrix represents a reflection in the plane x=0?

A
52
Q

What matrix represents a reflection in the plane z=0?

A
56
Q

Is the rotation around the x,y and z axis in the clockwise pr anticlockwise direction?

A

Anticlockwise

57
Q

A
58
Q

In all cases how is θ measured in a rotation matrix?

A

In all cases θ is the angle measured anticlockwise when facing towards the origin from the positive side of the axis

59
Q

What does the matrix PQ represent?

A

The Matrix PQ represents the transformation of Q (with matrix Q) followed by the transformation of P (with the matrix P)

(Think about reversing the compound transformation)

60
Q

What is the only time that you will need to recognise that a matrix will be squared?

A

If C is represented by matM, then C followed by C will be represented by M^2

61
Q

What are the 3 unit vectors when you are in 3D?

A
62
Q
A
63
Q

In 3D what does x=0 represent?

A

They planer of x (a 2D shape not a line)

64
Q

Have a general idea of what the different planes look like?

A
65
Q

What 2 things do you need to remember about matrices?

A

AB≠BA

66
Q

How can we use the inverse of a matrix to our advantage?

A

The bottom bit is the important bit

67
Q
