Consider the following statements regarding $2D$ transforms in computer graphics:
$S1$:
[
]
is a $2 \times 2$ matrix that reflects any $2D$ point about the $X$-axis.
$S2$: A $2 \times 2$ matrix which mirrors any $2D$ point about the $X$-axis, is a rotation matrix.
What can you say about the statements $S1$ and $S2$?
π₯ Video solution / Text Solution of this question is given below:
Given matrix is
[
]
When this matrix is applied on point $(x,y)$, then the point becomes $(x,-y)$.
This means the sign of $x$ remains same and the sign of $y$ changes.
So, this represents reflection about the $X$-axis.
Therefore, statement $S1$ is true.
But reflection about the $X$-axis is not a rotation matrix.
Therefore, statement $S2$ is false.
Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.
