Six sample exam questions on linear transformations and matrices. The questions cover topics such as finding standard matrices, determining if transformations are one-to-one or onto, finding vectors that map to given vectors, and calculating the inverse of a matrix. Students are expected to use matrix operations and the invertible matrix theorem to solve the problems.
