hope this helps, though im not sure if it is right. I checked different values and it works but I can't simplify it

are we meant to know this? it seems like some sort of next level maths

Thanks but it looks a bit confusing, I should check out page 47 of the textbook like previous poster suggested.

I improved it, please take a look :biggrin:

When you're doing matrix rotations, does a positive angle mean anti clockwise?

im an AS, but it's difficult to tell. I see some A2 people doing it, and some AS people doing it.

Mostly AS, if not, all. I imagine there will be a few A2 students retaking though.

yeah, if the point was, for example (1,-1), the angle would obviously be 45 degrees to horizontal, but you have to stick a minus sign on it because it was clockwise, so it would actually be -45 degrees transformation

Who else here finds FP1 quite easy but is stressing over whether Edexcel is going to give us a round house tomorrow, so to speak ?

Anybody who likes proof questions is not human! Just thought I'd put this out there, they are literally impossible and I've got 95+ UMS in all my other Maths exams ;P

Proof by induction is the only good part of FP1!

Complex numbers are dull, matrices are ****, parabolas and things are ok, and the sigma things are rubbish too

Whoa. Parabolas are ok but matrices are ****? You have some wierd taste going on there.

I have full on love for Matrices and Vectors, just wait til you hit FP3 :tongue:
