Drawing Figures
Transformation Using a Matrix or Vector (General Transform)
General Transform lets you input a matrix and/or vector to transform a figure. The result of
the transformation is drawn as a separate figure. For example, if you transform line segment
AB, the line segment A’B’ will be drawn.
You can perform the following types of transformations with General Transform.
• Matrix Transformation: x -axis/ y -axis symmetry, rotation, enlargement, reduction, etc.
• Vector Transformation: Vertical and horizontal parallel displacement
k General Transform Example
In this example draw triangle ABC and then draw triangle A’B’C’, which is symmetrical to
ABC about the
x -axis. Next, we will draw triangle A’’B’’C’’ by performing a parallel
displacement on triangle A’B’C’ of 1 unit along the x - and y -axis.
