Based on the results shown above, we can see Matrix A‘s influence on vectors 𝐱𝟏 , 𝐱𝟐 , 𝐱𝟑 .
Matrix A causes the vector to rotate and change its direction by 90 degrees clockwise, but

Based on the results shown above, we can see Matrix C’s influence on vectors 𝐱𝟏 , 𝐱𝟐 , 𝐱𝟑 .
Matrix C causes the vector to reflect about the line y = x causing it to change its direction,
d) An orthogonal matrix is a matrix that will causes vectors to change directions, but will not
have any effect on the magnitude of the vector. In this case, Matrix A, B and C are
orthogonal.

Based on the results shown above, matrix multiplication is not commutative. Matrix AB and
BA does not produce the same outcome. When multiplied to a typical vector x, Matrix AB
causes the vector x to reflect about line -y = x. While Matrix BA causes the vector x to reflect
about line y = x.

In the calculations above, by using the inverse matrix 𝐀−𝟏 , 𝐁−𝟏 and 𝐂 −𝟏 we can undo the
effects of matrix A, B and C to the vector 𝐱𝟏 . This is simply because when you multiply the
1 0
matrix by the inverse of itself, it becomes an identity matrix,[ ].

Based on the calculation above, we can see the relationship between (𝐀𝐁)𝐓 , 𝐀𝐓 and 𝐁𝐓 . By
proving 𝐀𝐁(𝐀𝐁)−𝟏 = 𝑨𝑩(𝐁−𝟏 𝐀−𝟏 ), we can say that the order of AB in the transpose

−4
From the results above, 𝒙𝟐 = { } and 𝜆2 = −1. Since we know that an eigenvector is a
4
vector multiplied by a scalar to change its magnitude, we can see that the direction of 𝒙𝟐 is
the opposite direction of 𝐂𝒙𝟐 , but it’s not the direction that changed but the magnitude.
The magnitude is scaled by -1 because of the eigenvalue, making the vector to change.
