Question
A linear transformation T : R2 R2 is called a dilation ifT(x) = r x for r > 1. (It is called a contraction if 0 < r < 1.)(a) Find the matrix A such that T(x) = Ax.(b) Letr = 2, and then sketch the graphs of x = 21and T(x).
Solution
The first step in solving 3.1 problem number 49 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A linear transformation T : R2 R2 is called a dilation ifT(x) = r x for r > 1. (It is called a contraction if 0 < r < 1.)(a) Find the matrix A such that T(x) = Ax.(b) Letr = 2, and then sketch the graphs of x = 21and T(x).
From the textbook chapter Linear Transformations you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
