Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Area Theorem:**
If \( A \) is a 2 x 2 matrix, the area of the parallelogram determined by the columns of \( A \) is the absolute value of the determinant of \( A \), Area = \(|\text{det} (A)|\). The same formula calculates the volume of the parallelepiped determined by the columns of \( A \), if \( A \) is a 3 x 3 matrix.
**Example:** The vectors \(\vec{u} = (2, 1)\), \(\vec{v} = (3, 0)\) define the parallelogram.
*Diagram Explanation:*
The graph shows a grid with vectors \(\vec{u}\) and \(\vec{v}\). Vector \(\vec{u}\) starts at the origin and points to (2,1), while vector \(\vec{v}\) points to (3,0). These vectors form a parallelogram shaded in blue on the graph.
The matrix \( A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 3 \\ 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix} \), \(\text{det} A = -3\), \(|\text{det}(A)| = |-3| = 3\).
