A transformation T: is described as, T rotates every point through the same angle about the origin. That is, T maps a point with polar coordinates (r, 0) onto the point with polar coordinates , where is fixed. Also, Tmaps 0 onto itself. Determine whether T is linear. If T is linear, describe its null space and range, and compute its nullity and rank.

Step 1
1 of 2Let be a point in , in polar coordinates. Then, its Cartesian coordinates are , where
The function is defined such that, in polar coordinates, , where is constant. In Cartesian coordinates, this means that , where
Therefore, in Cartesian coordinates, . We know that any function of the form must be linear, so is linear.
