Applications of 2 × 2 matrices to Identification and use of the matrix representation of single represent geometrical transformations from: reflection in coordinate axes and transformations. lines y = ±x, rotation through any angle about (0, 0), stretches parallel to the x-axis and y-axis, and enlargement about centre (0, 0), with scale factor k, (k ≠ 0), where k ∈.
Use fp1.6.2 - applications of 2 × 2 matrices to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.
This matters because fp1.6.2 - applications of 2 × 2 matrices determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.
Example: apply fp1.6.2 - applications of 2 × 2 matrices to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.
Boundary: FP1.6.2 - Applications of 2 × 2 matrices is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
