(a)

By using dot product of two vectors, each component of AR can be written as the dot

product of a pair of unit vectors:

[&B &₁ PB &₁ 28 &₁]

AR=&B - P₁ PB-PA 28 P₁

XB-2₁ 8/B 2A 2B-2₁

Appraise the geometrical interpretation of the first row:

[&B &₁ PB ₁ 28.₁1

If the position of point P in Frame {B} is expressed as P = [111]", calculate

the coordinates of point P in Frame {A}.

Appraise by providing your description to show how the Frame {A} can be

transformed to obtain Frame {B} according to the numerical values given in the

AT.

What does the symbol R denote? Analyse the numerical result for R based

on the given condition in T.
