between points in a plane do not change when a coordinate system is rotated In other words, the magnitude of a vector Is invariant under rotations of the coordinate system. Suppose a coordinate system S is rotated about its origin by angle φ to become a new coordinate system S’ , as shown in the following figure. A point in a plane has coordinates ( x , y ) in S and coordinates ( x ' , y ' ) in S’. (a) Show that, during the transformation of rotation, the coordinates in S are expressed in terms of the coordinates in S by the following relations: { x ' = x cos φ + y sin φ y ' = − x sin φ + y cos φ (b) Show that the distance of point P to the origin is invariant under rotations of the coordinate system. Here, you have to show that x 2 + y 2 = x ' 2 + y ' 2 . (c) Show that the distance between points P and Q is invariant under rotations of the coordinate system. Here, you have to show that ( x P = x Q ) 2 + ( y P − y Q ) 2 = ( x ' P = x ' Q ) 2 + ( y ' P − y ' Q ) 2 .
