(a)

Circle the matrix that represents an enlargement, scale factor 3, centre \(O\). [1 mark]

  • \(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 3 \end{pmatrix}\)
  • \(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & 3 \\ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}\)
  • \(\begin{pmatrix} 0 & 3 \\ 3 & 0 \end{pmatrix}\)
  • \(\begin{pmatrix} 3 & 0 \\ 3 & 0 \end{pmatrix}\)
(b)

\(OABC\) is the unit square.

\(O\ (0, 0) \qquad A\ (1, 0) \qquad B\ (1, 1) \qquad C\ (0, 1)\)

K is the transformation represented by \(\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1 \end{pmatrix}\)

L is the transformation represented by \(\begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ -1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}\)

\(OABC\) is mapped to \(OA^{\prime}B^{\prime}C^{\prime}\) under a combined transformation of K followed by L.

Work out the coordinates of \(A^{\prime}\), \(B^{\prime}\) and \(C^{\prime}\). [3 marks]
