Finding Transformation Matrices

Dear 313 and 302 students,


Just as a hint about calculating transformation matrices,

Step 1: Take the transformation of the standard basis vectors.
Step 2: Use the transformed vectors as the columns of the transformation matrix.

Voila! Success!

A sample problem will be posted shortly.

Welcome to the BYU Math Lab Blog

Hello!

We welcome you to the launching of our blog! Our hope is that we can help you even more through it. Soon there will be tips and hints regarding difficult problems on your homework for all the classes supported by the Math Lab. Don't get too excited though; you're only getting hints-- not the answers.

Also, you can come and see when the next review sessions are scheduled.

Feel free to leave comments or suggestions that you may have about the lab. If you think we could improve in some way, please tell us! If you have a personal problem with a TA, we kindly request that you do inform us discreetly, instead of publicly on the blog. This is meant to be a friendly service, and we don't want to have to deprive those who do use it for such.

Thanks! And have a great day!
