Linear Transformations in R2

The video tutorial explains how to find the standard matrix for a linear transformation from R2 to R2. It begins by introducing the concept of linear transformations and the goal of finding matrix A such that T(x) = Ax. The tutorial then outlines the process of using known transformations of vectors to determine the columns of the transformation matrix. It involves setting up linear combinations, writing augmented matrices, and using row echelon form to solve for coefficients. The transformations of vectors e1 and e2 are calculated, leading to the construction of the standard matrix. The video concludes with a summary of the steps taken to find the matrix.
