\item Show that a scaling matrix with $s_x = -1$, $s_y = 1$, $s_z = -1$ creates the same $4\times 4$ transformation matrix as a rotation around the $y$ axis by 180 degrees. Write out the matrices. \pointsin{5}
\item Derive the $4 \times 4$ matrices for the two transformations below and show that they are not commutative: \pointsin{5}

\subsection{Graphics Pipeline Step-by-Step \points{20}}
In this question, we will go through the graphics pipeline step by step. Suppose we have a 3D point $\vec{p} = (2,\ 1,\ 3)^T$ and its normal vector $\vec{n} = (\frac{1}{3},\ \frac{2}{3},\ \frac{2}{3})^T$.
\begin{enumerate}[label=(\roman*)]
\itemsep1em
\item \textbf{(Model Transform)} First, transform the point, $\vec{p}$, and vector, $\vec{n}$, into the world coordinate system, $\vec{p}_{w}$ and $\vec{n}_{w}$ respectively. Apply the following transformations in order:
\begin{itemize}
\item scale $y$ by 3 and scale $x$ and $z$ by 2
\item rotate around $x$-axis by 180 degrees
\item translate along $x, y$, and $z$ axes by 1
\end{itemize}
%
Report the scaling, rotation, and translation matrices, and $\vec{p}_{w}$ and $\vec{n}_{w}$. \pointsin{5}
\textbf{Hint:} Are homogeneous coordinate representation and transformation of points and vectors the same?
\item \textbf{(View Transform)} Next, transform the point, $\vec{p}_{w}$, from the world coordinate system, into camera (or view) coordinates, $\vec{p}_{v}$. Use the following parameters to define the view transform:
\begin{itemize}
\item eye point (camera location) $\vec{e} = (0,\ 10,\ 10)$
\item look-at (i.e., center) point $\vec{c} = (0,\ 0,\ 0)$
\item up vector $\vec{u} = (0,\ \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2},\ -\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2})^T$
\item gaze vector $\vec{g} = \vec{c}-\vec{e}$ ($\vec{g}$ denotes the vector pointing from point $\vec{e}$ to point $\vec{c}$)
\end{itemize}
%
Report $\vec{p}_{v}$. As a sanity check, apply this view transform to $\vec{e}$ (point), $\vec{u}$ (vector), and $\vec{g}$ (vector), and report your findings. What do you expect to see and why is this a good way to check that your view transform is implemented correctly? \pointsin{5}
\item \textbf{(Projection Transform)} At this stage of the pipeline, the projection comes in. Apply the (symmetric) perspective projection transform to the point in camera coordinates, $\vec{p}_{v}$, using the following camera parameters:
%
\begin{itemize}
\item \textit{aspect}: 1
\item \textit{fovy}: $90^\circ$
\item \textit{zNear}(\textit{n}): 2, \textit{zFar}(\textit{f}): 22
\end{itemize}
%
Report the projection matrix, the transformed point in clip coordinates, $\vec{p}_{clip}$ ($4\times1$ vector), and the transformed point in normalized device coordinates, $\vec{p}_{ndc}$ ($3\times1$ vector), after the perspective divide. \pointsin{5}
\item \textbf{(Viewport Transform)} The point after the perspective divide is a $3\times1$ vector $\begin{pmatrix} x_{ndc},y_{ndc},z_{ndc} \end{pmatrix}^{ T }$. The $x$ and $y$ components now have to be mapped onto a 2D screen. For simplicity, let's map the point to a small square screen with a resolution of 200$\times$200 pixels (i.e., $l_{ w }$=200\, and\, $h_{ w }$=200), where the bottom-left coordinate is (0,\ 0). Report the corresponding 2D window coordinate on the screen (in floating point). \pointsin{5}
