Geometric Exercises in Paper Folding

Geometric Exercises in Paper Folding is a book on the mathematics of paper folding. It was written by Indian mathematician T. Sundara Row, first published in India in 1893, and later republished in many other editions. Its topics include paper constructions for regular polygons, symmetry, and algebraic curves. According to historian of mathematics Michael Friedman, it became "one of the main engines of the popularization of folding as a mathematical activity". (Wikipedia).

Geometric Algebra - The Matrix Representation of a Linear Transformation

In this video, we will show how matrices as computational tools may conveniently represent the action of a linear transformation upon a given basis. We will prove that conventional matrix operations, particularly matrix multiplication, conform to the composition of linear transformations.

Geometric Transformations

We discuss how "geometric transformations" (rotations, stretching, reflection) can be represented by matrices. We also briefly introduce the idea of "point matrices" and their application in computer graphics.
