Exercise 2

Find the matrix that reflects about the line y=2xy=2x.

Exercise 3

Find the matrix that reflects about the line y=2x−4y=2x-4.

Exercise 4

Rotation and translation are rigid operations. What is the matrix for a rotation followed by a translation?

3.0

Exercise 5

The homogeneous coordinates extend to manipulations of three dimensional space in the obvious way: every coordinate is a set of four-tall nonzero vectors that are related by being scalar multiples of each other. Give the matrix to do rotation about the zz axis, and the matrix for rotation about the yy axis.
