When rotating linear functions, I would approach the task geometrically (find invariant point etc.), yet I tried using a matrix which worked nicely.



This was what I did to rotate $y=2x+1$ by $fracpi4$ about the origin.



$$beginpmatrix
frac1sqrt2 &frac-1sqrt2 \
frac1sqrt2&frac1sqrt2
endpmatrix
beginpmatrix
x\ 2x+1endpmatrix
=
frac1sqrt2beginpmatrix
1-x\ 3x+1
endpmatrix$$



$$x'=frac1sqrt2(1-x); ,; y'=frac1sqrt2(3x+1)$$



So
$$y'=2sqrt2-3x'$$



I have also tried this on non-linear functions and it worked.



When I generalise this I obtain:



$$x'=xcos(theta )-ysin(theta); ,; y'=xcos(theta )+ysin(theta)$$



The problem is I can only seem to eliminate one of either $x$ or $y$. Is it possible to eliminate both?



Other related questions I have are:
Can you use matrices to rotate a function around an arbitrary point, not the origin?
Can this concept by applied to 3-dimensions? What about parametric functions?
Can anyone recommend any material for pursing matrix transformations of functions (possibly of more than one variable)?



For reference I am currently a secondary school student in the UK.



Thanks

$begingroup$

You cannot eliminate one variable as the angle that the the function makes at a point is dependent on both x and y.



What you want to look at is called a rotation matrix.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix



When you rotate a function about a point, you are causing a series of rotations about various axis. See the "In three dimensions" section of the Wikipedia article linked above, and pay attention to the "Rotation matrix from axis and angle" subsection. You can continue multiplying a function by rotation matrices to get your desired result.
