Lecture#4

This document summarizes a mathematics lecture on plane transformations, including: 1) Translations are performed by adding vectors, represented as columns of numbers. Matrices can also be added or multiplied by scalars. 2) Reflections flip points across an axis, represented by multiplying vectors by a matrix with -1 in the appropriate entry. 3) Rotations around the origin or another point rotate vectors by multiplying them by a rotation matrix with cosine and sine values. 4) Examples demonstrate translating, reflecting, and rotating points on a plane algebraically using vectors and matrices. Exercises provide additional practice with these concepts.

Descartes coordinate system.

The Distance Formula


The distance between two points
(𝑎1 , 𝑎2 ) 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑏1 , 𝑏2 𝑖𝑠
(𝑎1 − 𝑏1 )2 +(𝑎2 − 𝑏2 )2

write the pairs of numbers in columns. Thus, for example,


1
instead of (1, 2), we will write
2 2
Plane Symmetries, Vectors, and Matrices

Example 1:Translations
1 −2 −1

2 2 4
1 −2 −1
+ =
2 −3 −1
1 1 2
+ =
2 −1 1
1 4 5
+ =
2 −3 −1

The vector that starts at the origin and ends at the point A
in the plane is called the position vector of the point A.

through their coordinates).

Matrices

A two-by-two matrix. 𝑏 𝑏2

The numbers 𝑎1 , 𝑎2 , 𝑎3 and 𝑎4 in the matrix are called the


entries of the matrix.

n-by-m matrix is a rectangular array of numbers with 𝑛


rows and 𝑚 columns. The numbers 𝑛 and 𝑚 in this setting
are called the dimensions of the matrix

Add the matrices

−2 1 5 6 −2 + 5 1 + 6

Multiply the matrix by the number


Example: multiply by 3
1 2 1×3 2×3
3 = :
−2 1 −2 × 3 1 × 3
The product formula:
𝑎1 𝑎2 𝑐1 𝑎1 × 𝑐1 + 𝑎2 × (𝑐2 )
𝑏1 𝑏2 𝑐2 = 𝑏1 × 𝑐1 + 𝑏2 × (𝑐2 )

Example 2: Multiplication by a Matrix
1 2 −1
We will find the product of and using the
3 4 0
product formula:
1 2 −1 1 × −1 + 2 × (0) −1
= =
3 4 0 3 × −1 + 4 × (0) −3
1 2
We see that multiplication by the matrix
3 4
rearranges the points in the plane, each one
being moved to the product of the matrix
1 2
with that point (as a pair of numbers
3 4
written in a column). In the shown Figure we
visualize what we have found so far.

Example 3: Some Reflections
−1 0 𝑎
If multiply the matrix in any vector
0 1 𝑏
−1 0 𝑎 −𝑎
=
0 1 𝑏 𝑏

Geometrically, this means that


both points are at equal distance
from the vertical axis, but they
are on the opposite sides of it
