Matrices as Functions

Study Guide Overview

This AP Precalculus study guide covers matrices as functions, specifically:

  • Linear transformations and their matrix representations, including the significance of unit vectors and the standard basis.
  • Rotation matrices, counterclockwise and clockwise rotations, and transformation equations.
  • Determinants and their relationship to dilation and reflection.
  • Composition of linear transformations and matrix multiplication.
  • Inverse transformations and inverse matrices, including the identity matrix.
