CSEC Mathematics · January 2009 · Paper 2 · Question 14(b)(iii)

The diagram shows a triangle, ABC whose coordinates are stated. Triangle ABC undergoes two successive transformations, V followed by W, where V = ((2, 0), (0, 2)) and W = ((-1, 0), (0, 1)).

Using your matrix in (b)(ii), determine the coordinates of the image of triangle ABC under this combined transformation.

The mark scheme is shown once you've answered.
