7. The matrix \(\mathbf { A }\) is defined by $$\mathbf { A } = \left( \begin{array} { r r } 4 & - 5
- 3 & 2 \end{array} \right)$$ The transformation represented by \(\mathbf { A }\) maps triangle \(T\) onto triangle \(T ^ { \prime }\) Given that the area of triangle \(T\) is \(23 \mathrm {~cm} ^ { 2 }\)
  1. determine the area of triangle \(T ^ { \prime }\)
    (2) The point \(P\) has coordinates ( \(3 p + 2,2 p - 1\) ) where \(p\) is a constant. The transformation represented by \(\mathbf { A }\) maps \(P\) onto the point \(P ^ { \prime }\) with coordinates \(( 17 , - 18 )\)
  2. Determine the value of \(p\). Given that $$\mathbf { B } = \left( \begin{array} { r r } 0 & 1
    - 1 & 0 \end{array} \right)$$
  3. describe fully the single geometrical transformation represented by matrix \(\mathbf { B }\) The transformation represented by matrix \(\mathbf { A }\) followed by the transformation represented by matrix \(\mathbf { C }\) is equivalent to the transformation represented by matrix \(\mathbf { B }\)
  4. Determine C
