Consider the following linear transformations in R3: R1: Counterclockwise rotation about the positive x-axis through an angle v R2: Reflection about the x-z plane R3: Orthogonal projection on to the x-y plane R4: Dilation by a positive factor k It turns out that the composition (in any order) of the above transformations has no inverse transformation. Which transformation(s) in the composition may be causing this absence of an inverse transformation?
