This will be the last session on 3D Modelling, designed to tie up loose ends.
It contents will therefore depend on the challenges encountered in the three first sessions.

# Exercises
1. Complete the exercises from last week.
3. Given a rotational matrix
$$
\begin{bmatrix}
\cos(\pi/6) & -\sin(\pi/6) & 0 \\
\sin(\pi/6) & \cos(\pi/6) & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 1
\end{bmatrix}
$$
and a translation $\vec{v}=[1,0,2]$.
What are the homogenous matrices describing each of the
following operations:
+ rotate by $R$ and then translate by $\vec{v}$
+ translate by $\vec{v}$ and then rotate by $R$
3. Suppose you have rotated by $R$ and then translated by $\vec{v}$
as given in the previous exercise.
What is the homogeneous matrix to undo this operation?
