The Gaussian Algorithm Visualized

Gaussian Elimination is an algebraic method to solve systems of linear equations that every linear algebra student masters. But what does it actually mean geometrically? In this video I show two different perspectives about what is going on behind the scene when you do row operations aka matrix manipulations in the gaussian algorithm. In the first, the intersection point between various lines or planes is fixed while the planes rotate to be aligned with the coordinate axes. In the second dynamic picture of a linear transformation, the gaussian algorithm breaks down the transformation into simpler ones such as stretching, interchanging, and shear transformations represented via elementary matrices. 0:00 Systems of Linear Equations 1:00 Geometric Interpretation 2:09 2D operations algebraically 2:44 2D operations geometrically 3:52 3D operations 7:08 Linear Transformations 10:11 Elementary matrices algebraically 11:56 Elementary matrices geometrically A MEMBER: ►Join: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9rTsvTxJnx1DNrDA3Rqa6A/join MATH BOOKS I LOVE (affilliate link): ► https://www.amazon.com/shop/treforbazett COURSE PLAYLISTS: ►DISCRETE MATH: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxersk8fUxiUMSIx0DBqsKZS ►LINEAR ALGEBRA: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxfUl0tcqPNTJsb7R6BqSLo6 ►CALCULUS I: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxfT9RMcReZ4WcoVILP4k6-m ► CALCULUS II: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxc4ySKTIW19TLrT91Ik9M4n ►MULTIVARIABLE CALCULUS (Calc III): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxc_CvEy7xBKRQr6I214QJcd ►VECTOR CALCULUS (Calc IV) https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxfW0GMqeUE1bLKaYor6kbHa ►DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxde-SlgmWlCmNHroIWtujBw ►LAPLACE TRANSFORM: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxcJXnLr08cyNaup4RDsbAl1 ►GAME THEORY: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxdzD8KpTHz6_gsw9pPxRFlX OTHER PLAYLISTS: ► Learning Math Series https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPH2lqis3D0&list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxfSkRtlL5KPq6JqMNTh_MBw ►Cool Math Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHXZ9OQGMqxelE_9RzwJ-cqfUtaFBpiho SOCIALS: ►X/Twitter: http://X.com/treforbazett ►TikTok: http://tiktok.com/@drtrefor ►Instagram (photography based): http://instagram.com/treforphotography
