Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to explore some of the uses of matrices and vectors in expressing geometric ideas. We assume you are familiar with the basic properties of plane and space studied in high school geometry. For now, we concentrate on the plane and space; however, later in this text we shall lift the ideas developed here to higher dimensions.
