very simple....
first draw the unit matrix n den watevr matrix is given draw dat...n den chk wat kinda transformation is hppning between the unit matrix n the one given...

hope u get it.. :)

first write down 2 sets of co-ordinates from triangle T in a matrix form
then multiply it with the unknown matrix and equate it to the matrix form of two corrseponding sets of co-ordinates of the image i.e R

(2   8 ) *   (w  y)     (-4  -4)
(4   4)      (x  z)  = (-2  -8)

therefore you can find the values of w,x,y and z by multiplying (-4  -4) with the inverse of (2  8 )
                                                                                      (-2  -8)                           (4  4)


=> so the answer is (0  -1)
                            (-1  0)

plz infrm me if u didn't understand...as i am available anytime in studentforums...
Good luck

hmmm shan2391 c u can du it da way zara or eddie_adi619 told or in our skul dey hv thot us da base vectors which r matrixes n represent da transformations. da only bad part is dat u hv 2 lern dem. du u want dem?
Don't say "God I have tooo many problems" but say "Problems I have God!"   Gud Luck 2 all 4 xams. Hope v all du well.....fingers crossed LOL

base vectors are life savers!!
and they dnt tke long to lern
5 minutes maximum...
gd fr my level ..
which isnt too high .. =P

@sweetsh - thanx a lot   :)
@angel - okk...so lets try the next sum

U onto Q

take any 2 co-ordinates of triangle U i.e = (-6,2) and (0,2)
arrange them vertically o form a 2 by 2 matrix

(-6  0)
(2   2)

now let say the unknown matrix of transformation is
(a  b)
(c  d)

so it implies that when you multiply the co-ordinates of U with the matrix of transformation, you get the co-ordinates of the image i.e triangle Q...(look at the corresponding co-ordinates of U in Q)
you can see that the point (-6,2) is mapped onto (-6,4) and (0,2) to (0,4)
soo the equation is

(-6  0)  *   (a  b)  = (-6  0)
(2   2)       (c  d)     (4   4)

if you take (-6  0)
                (2   2) to other side then it becomes the inverse...

so you multiply

(-6  0)                            (-6  0)
(4   4) with the inverse of  (2   2)

therefore u get the answer (1  0)
                                     (0  2)

draw like a sketch of an axis
mark a point "i" wid de coordinates (1,0)
and "j" wid de coordinates (0,1)

thts the base vector...
theyr written like (1 0)
                       (0 1) like any coordinates

and whn they ask u to change the object into the transformation (0 1)
                                                                                        (1 0)
u simply change the coordinates on "i" and "j"
and u knw if its a reflection , rotation or wtevr!!
