    LA - 4. Vector Geometry

    Uploaded by

    Nguyen Thanh Hop (K17 HCM)
    This chapter outlines vector geometry and its applications. It covers vectors and lines, projections and planes, properties of the cross product, linear operators in R3, and an application to computer graphics. Projections, reflections, rotations and translations are defined using vectors. The dot and cross products are used to determine angles between vectors, find distances, and describe planes. Computer graphics applications represent images as matrices and apply transformation matrices to change the image.
