Can someone please help me with a matrice question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got the answer as to what the vertices of th etriangle wld be but like does the transformation represent?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Please don't use doc. just copy and paste question and chooses

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol whtvr I used a pdf and most ppl dont have an issue with that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is coming from a pdf format so I have to print screen it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can u help me?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i will try :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LOL ppl can help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im "traying to try"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

OpenStudy (phi):

Do you know how to do the matrix multiplication?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rows by columns?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got the answer of the points of the triangle but i need to know abt the transformation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you need to represent the transformation as a triangle?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how it see pictorially?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ummm ok they gave you the points of the traingle and then it asks u to transform by multiplying it by matrix A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I was able to get the points of the two transformed triangles but i dont get what the transformation is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tl;dr \[\Large \begin{array}{l} A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 0&{ - 1}\\ 1&0 \end{array}} \right]\\ T = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&2&3 \end{array}}\\ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&4&2 \end{array}} \end{array}} \right]\\ AT = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} { - 1}&{ - 4}&{ - 2} \end{array}}\\ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&2&3 \end{array}} \end{array}} \right]\\ AAT = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} { - 1}&{ - 2}&{ - 3} \end{array}}\\ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} { - 1}&{ - 4}&{ - 2} \end{array}} \end{array}} \right] \end{array}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks FSM:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but like how wld i explain the transformation?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know, may be you could construct some ideas from that.. sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think in the a) AT; the triange rotates

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thnaks :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I drew all the triangles on a graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and in AAT; it rotates again?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it easier to see what happennned

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AAT it gets flipped in the y an dthen x axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It gets mirrored in the y=-x axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but AT is confusing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It get mirrored in the y axis

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but then there seems to be another transformation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it also he inverse

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not sure and doesnt seem like any1 else is either

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks that was helpful :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks it was a really good question

OpenStudy (phi):

A is rotating the triangle 90º counter clockwise around the origin. Notice that 2 of the rotations gives you 180º
