mmmm can u tell me how to calculate stetch factor and shear factor???
I think it was distance travlled/distance from the invariant line. the distance travelled is the distance covered by a specific point after it has undergone transformation e-g if a point had the coordinates 2,1 and after a transformation, it went to 4,1 the distance travelled would be 4-2 =2. Now lets consider the same point for the invariant line. It would be the x axis, or y=0. So the perpendicular distance from the invariant line would be 1. So overall, divide 2 by 1 and the factor would be 2. Overall, it would be a stretch of factor 2 with y=o as invariant line, parallel to x axis.
