Matrices Used In Computer Graphics Every one of us uses matrices nearly everyday in our lives and probably unaware of it. Matrices are commonly used in computers for their 3D graphics. Most of the matrices that are used are either 3x3 or 4x4 matrices and are computed by either rotation matrices or translation matrices. The matrices that are used are an array that holds numbers‚ commonly called a 3x3 array or 4x4 array. Or Examples of 3x3 and 4x4 matrices. The reason that matrices are used is
