Question
Let R = 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 The column vectors of R represent the homogeneous coordinates of points in the plane. (a) Draw the figure whose vertices correspond to the column vectors of R. What type of figure is it? (b) For each of the following choices of A, sketch the graph of the figure represented by AR and describe geometrically the effect of the linear transformation: (i) A = 1 2 0 0 0 1 2 0 0 0 1 (ii) A = 1 2 1 2 0 1 2 1 2 0 0 0 1 (iii) A = 1 0 2 0 1 3 0 0 1 1
Solution
The first step in solving 4.2 problem number 9 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Let R = 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 The column vectors of R represent the homogeneous coordinates of points in the plane. (a) Draw the figure whose vertices correspond to the column vectors of R. What type of figure is it? (b) For each of the following choices of A, sketch the graph of the figure represented by AR and describe geometrically the effect of the linear transformation: (i) A = 1 2 0 0 0 1 2 0 0 0 1 (ii) A = 1 2 1 2 0 1 2 1 2 0 0 0 1 (iii) A = 1 0 2 0 1 3 0 0 1 1
From the textbook chapter Matrix Representations of Linear Transformations you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
