Project Title Linear Transformation
What is a Linear Transformation? A linear transformation is a function that maps vectors while preserving: 1. Additivity: T(u+v) = T(u) + T(v) 2. Homogeneity: T(cu) = cT(u)
Example of Linear Transformation T(x, y) = (2x + y, x - 3y) Checking: 1. Additivity holds 2. Homogeneity holds => It is a valid linear transformation.
Matrix Representation Any linear transformation can be written as: T(x, y) = A * [x, y] For example, A = [2 1; 1 -3]
Geometric Interpretation Scaling, Rotation, Reflection, and Projection are common transformations. Each transformation has a specific matrix representation.
Example 1 - Scaling Scaling transformation matrix: A = [k 0; 0 k] Effect: Enlarges or shrinks objects.
Example 2 - Rotation Rotation transformation matrix: A = [cosθ -sinθ; sinθ cosθ] Effect: Rotates vectors by θ degrees.
Example 3 - Reflection Reflection across x-axis: A = [1 0; 0 -1] Effect: Mirrors objects over x-axis.
Kernel and Range Kernel (Null Space): Ker(T) = {x | T(x) = 0} Range (Image): Im(T) = {T(x) | x ∈ V}
