The Concept of a Matrix
Explain the concept of a matrix
Definition:
A matrix is an array or an Orderly arrangement of objects in rows and columns.
Each object in the matrix is called an element (entity).
Consider the following table showing the number of students in each stream in each form.
| Form | I | II | III | IV |
| Stream A | 38 | 35 | 40 | 28 |
| Stream B | 36 | 40 | 34 | 39 |
| Stream C | 40 | 37 | 36 | 35 |
From the above table, if we enclose the numbers in brackets without changing
their arrangement, then a matrix is farmed, this can be done by
removing the headings and the bracket enclosing the numbers (elements)
and given a name (normally a capital letter).

removing the headings and the bracket enclosing the numbers (elements)
and given a name (normally a capital letter).
Nowthe above information can be presented in a matrix form as
Any matrix has rows and columns but sometimes you may find a matrix with only row without Colum or only column without row.
In the matrix A above, the numbers 38, 36 an 40 form the first column and 38, 35, 40 and 28 form the first row.
Matrix A above has three (3) rows and four (4) columns.
In
the matrix A, 34 is the element (entity) in the second row and third
column while 28 lies in the first row and fourth column. The plural form
of matrix is matrices.
the matrix A, 34 is the element (entity) in the second row and third
column while 28 lies in the first row and fourth column. The plural form
of matrix is matrices.
Normallymatrices are named by capital letters and their elements by small letters which represent real numbers.
Order of a matrix (size of matrix)
The order of a matrix or size of a matrix is given by the number of its rows and the number of its columns.
So if A has m rows and n columns, then the order of matrix is m x n.
It
is important to note that the order of any matrix is given by stating
the number of its rows first and then the number of its columns.

Rules of finding the product of matrices;
- The pre –multiplier matrix is divided row wise, that is it is divided according to its rows.
- The post multiplier is divided according to its columns.
- Multiplication is done by taking an element from the row and multiplied by an element from the column.
- In
rule (iii) above, the left most element of the row is multiplied by the
top most element of the column and the right most element from the row
is multiplied by the bottom most element of the column and their sums
are taken:
Therefore
it can be concluded that matrix by matrix multiplication is only
possible if the number of columns in the pre-multiplier is equal to the
number of rows in the post multiplier.

A transformation in a plane is a mapping which moves an object from one
position to another within the plane. Figures on the plane can also be
shifted from one position by a transformation.
A transformation in a plane is a mapping which moves an object from one
position to another within the plane. Figures on the plane can also be
shifted from one position by a transformation.
A new position after a transformation on is called the image.
Examples of transformations are (i) Reflection (ii) Rotation (iii) Enlargement (iv) Translation.
Any Point P(X, Y) into P¹(X¹,Y¹) by Pre-Multiplying (ᵡᵧ) with a Transformation Matrix T
Transform any point P(X, Y) into P¹(X¹,Y¹) by pre-multiplying (ᵡᵧ) with a transformation matrix T
– Suppose a point P(x,y) in the x-y plane moves to a point P¢ (x¢,y¢) by a transformation T,
A transformation in which the size of the image is equal that of the object is called an ISOMETRIC MAPPING.
The Matrix to Reflect a Point P(X, Y ) in the X-Axis
Apply the matrix to reflect a point P(X, Y ) in the x-axis
Reflection;
When
you look at yourself in a mirror you seem to see your body behind the
mirror. Your body is in front of the mirror as your image is behind it.
you look at yourself in a mirror you seem to see your body behind the
mirror. Your body is in front of the mirror as your image is behind it.
An object is reflected in the mirror to form an image which is;
- The same size as the object
- The same distance from the mirror as the object
So reflection is an example of ISOMETRIC MAPPING.
The mirror is the line of symmetry between the object and the image.
Example 24
Find the image of the point A (2,3) after reflection in the x – axes.
Solution;
Plot point A and its image A¢ such that AA¢ crosses the x – axis at B and also perpendicular to it.
For reflection AB should be the same as BA¢ i.e. AB = BA¢
From the figure, the coordinates of A ¢ are A¢ (2,-3). So the image of A (2,3) under reflection in the x-axis is A¢ (2,-3)
Normally the letter M is used to denote reflection and thus Mx means reflection in the x – axis.
So Mx(2,3) =- (2,-3).
Where Mx means reflection in the x – axis and My means reflection in the y-axis.
The Matrix to Reflect a Point P(X, Y) in the Y-Axis
Apply the matrix to reflect a point P(X, Y) in the Y-Axis
Example 25
Find the image of B(3,4) under reflection in the y- axis.
Solution:
From My (x.y)= (-x,y)
My (3 ,4 ) =( -3,4)
Therefore the image of B(3,4) is B'(-3,4) .
Reflection in the line y = x.
The line y=x makes an angle 450 with
x and y axes. It is the line of symmetry for the angle YOX formed by
two axis. By using isosceles triangle properties, reflection of the
point (1,0) in the line y=x will be ( 0,1) while the reflection of (0,2)
in the line y=x will be ( 2, 0) it can be noticed that the coordinates
are exchanging positions. Hence the reflection of the point (x,y) in the
line y=x is ( y,x).
x and y axes. It is the line of symmetry for the angle YOX formed by
two axis. By using isosceles triangle properties, reflection of the
point (1,0) in the line y=x will be ( 0,1) while the reflection of (0,2)
in the line y=x will be ( 2, 0) it can be noticed that the coordinates
are exchanging positions. Hence the reflection of the point (x,y) in the
line y=x is ( y,x).
Where My =xmeans reflection in the line y=x.
Example 26
Find the image of the point A(1,2) after reflection in the line y = x . Draw a sketch.
Reflection in the line y = -x
The reflection of the point B(x,y) in the line y = -x is B'(-y,-x).
Example 27
Find the image of B (3,4) after reflection in the line y=-x followed by another reflection in the line y=0.Draw a sketch.
Solution;
Reflection of B in the line y=-x is B'(-4,-3). The line y=0 is the x – axis. So reflection (-4,-3) in the x-axis is (-4,3)
Therefore the image of B (3,4) is B¢(-4,3).
The image of a point P(x,y) when reflected in the line making an angleαwith positive x-axis and passing through the origin.
If
the line passes through the origin and makes an angle a with x – axis
in the positive direction, then its equation is y= xtanα where tanαis
the slope of the line.
the line passes through the origin and makes an angle a with x – axis
in the positive direction, then its equation is y= xtanα where tanαis

Consider the following diagram.
But OPQ is a right angled triangle.
So x = OP Cosβ and y = OPSinβ .
Again
OP¢R is a right angled triangle and the angle P¢QR = a -β + a- β+ β,
this is due to the fact that reflection is an isometric mapping.
OP¢R is a right angled triangle and the angle P¢QR = a -β + a- β+ β,
this is due to the fact that reflection is an isometric mapping.
Now the angle P¢OR = 2 a-β, then
It follows therefore that if M is a reflection in the line inclined at a, then
Example 28
Find the image of the point A (1, 2) after a reflection in the line y = x.
Example 29
Find the image of B (3,4) after reflection in the line y = -x followed by another reflection in the line y = 0.
But the line y = 0 has 0 slope because it is the x – axis,
Example 30
Find the equation of the line y = 2x + 5 after being reflected in the line y = x,
Solution:
The line y = x has a slope 1
So tan a = 1 which means a = 450
To
find the image of the line y = 2x + 5, we choose at least two points on
it and find their images, then we use the image points to find the
equation of the image line.
find the image of the line y = 2x + 5, we choose at least two points on
it and find their images, then we use the image points to find the
equation of the image line.
Now y = 2x + 5
The points (0,5) and (1,7) lie on the line

Rotation:
Definition; A rotation is a transformation which moves a point through a given angle about a fixed point.
Rotation is an isometric mapping and it is usually denoted by R.
Therefore Rθ means rotation of an object through an angleθ.

and when it is measured in the anticlockwise direction it is positive.
Example 31
Find the image of the point P(1,0) after a rotation through 900 about the origin in the anti clockwise direction.
P is on the x – axis, so after rotation through 900
about the origin it will be on the y – axis. Since P is 1unit from O,
P¢ is also 1 unit from O, the coordinates of P¢ (0,1) are P¢ (0,1).
Therefore R 900(1,0) = (0,1).
about the origin it will be on the y – axis. Since P is 1unit from O,
P¢ is also 1 unit from O, the coordinates of P¢ (0,1) are P¢ (0,1).
Therefore R 900(1,0) = (0,1).

Therefore the image of (1, 2) after rotation through 1800 anticlockwise is (-1,-2).
Example 34

Translation
Definition:
A translation is a mapping of a point P (x, y) into P’ (x’, y’) by the
Vector (a, b) such that (x’, y’) = (x, y) + (a, b), translation is
denoted by the letter T. So T maps a point (x, y) into x’, y’)
A translation is a mapping of a point P (x, y) into P’ (x’, y’) by the
Vector (a, b) such that (x’, y’) = (x, y) + (a, b), translation is
denoted by the letter T. So T maps a point (x, y) into x’, y’)
Where (x’, y’) = (x, y) + (a, b)
Consider

Find the translation vector which maps the point (6,-6) into (7,16).
Solution
Given that (x, y) = (6,-6) and (x¢, y¢) = (7,16), (a, b) =?
From T (x, y) = (x, y) + (a, b) = (x’, y’),
then (7,16) = (6,-6)+(a,b) which means a=7-6 = 1 and b=16+6 = 22. Therefore translation vector (a,b) = (1,22).

Linear Transformation:
Definition:
For any transformation T, any two vectors U and V and any real number t, T is said to be a linear transformation if and only if
T(t U) = tT(U) and T (U+V) = T(U) + T(V)
Example 41
Show that the rotation by 900about O(0,0) is a linear trans formation
Solution
Let U=(U1,U2) and V =(V1 , V2) be any two vectors in the plane and t be any real number
To show that R900 is the linear transformation we must show that
R900 (tU)= t R900 (U) and
R900 (U + V) = R900 (U) + R900 (V)
Therefore, since R900 (U) + R900 (V) = R900 (U+V) and R900 (tU)= t R900 (U), then R900 is a linear trans formation.
