- Do not ping the mods, unless someone is breaking the rules.
- If you're happy with the help you got here, and the server overall, you can contribute financially as well:
hey im the guy who asked what u meant, sorry i dont know about using matrices to transform graphs
im sure theres someone else who can help you out
good luck
i know about matrices but i didnt know u could use it to show graphical transformations
sorry
You'd need to write down the points
Say for point C you have [0 1] vertical
And, when multiplied by something, we gwt C'
Well, how would you solve the matrix equation
When you have XA=A'
We'd want to move the A to the other side. How would we do that?
We dont have division defined correct
So what you do is you multiply with the inverse on the right
$XAA^{-1}$
Ephesians 2:8-9
That way we get XI
And anything multiplied with the identity matrix is itself so we just get X
$XAA^{-1}=A'A^{-1}$
Ephesians 2:8-9
And what we do to one side, we also do to the other
$X=A'A^{-1}$ is what you're looking for
Ephesians 2:8-9
Then you'd need to find the inverse and multiply them
To find X
@cerulean spear did I lose you somewhere?
So
Hehe
Wdym
A is just the coordinate
Which can be represented as a 2x1 matrix
And A' is the resulting point, also a 2x1 matrix
I think that's the way to work out this problem. Let me know if it works
Yeah
Yeah, I overlooked that
Give me a moment
$\begin{bmatrix}
a & b\
c & d
\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}
1\
0
\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix}
2\
0
\end{bmatrix}$
Ephesians 2:8-9
So a×1+b×0=2 right?
@cerulean spear
What else can you get from there
a is 2 that's correct
c is not 2
c×1+d×0=0
Where are you from č
Lol
Its a letter in my language, that's why I ask
Anyways č=0 correct
We have a and c
Lets try to find the other two using another point
Cuz you cant figure it out from this one. The other two could be anything cuz theyre multiplied by 0
Try point C for example
Yeah
Looks good
And you can check if you multiply it by B whether you get B'
Looks good
So it's simpler than what I initally imagined
But hey you learned an additional technique when working with square matrices
Worked out all in all
Yep
Yeah the transform goes first
Yw
