In this video we discuss the 2x2 Determinant. We find out what it's original purpose was upon first discovery and how we can understand it's use in transforming 2 dimensional space today.
*Notes:
- Conducting a row swap on a matrix is a discovered property of determinants of any square matrix size. The resulting value of the determinant is multiplied by (-1)^m, where m is the number of row swaps you conduct. So if the determinant was originally positive then after conducting 5 row swaps you'd have the same magnitude of determinant, only, it will now be negative.
