Here are the solutions to the problem:

Part (a):
The vertices of △PQR\triangle PQR are given as P(3,1)P(3,1), Q(4,1)Q(4,1), and R(4,3)R(4,3).
To draw △PQR\triangle PQR, plot these points on a graph paper with the specified axes ranges and scale, then connect them.

Part (b)(i):
The vertices of △P1Q1R1\triangle P_1Q_1R_1 are given as P1(−2,−3)P_1(-2,-3), Q1(−1,−3)Q_1(-1,-3), and R1(−1,−1)R_1(-1,-1).
To draw △P1Q1R1\triangle P_1Q_1R_1, plot these points on the same graph paper and connect them.

Part (b)(ii):

  1. Compare the coordinates of △PQR\triangle PQR and △P1Q1R1\triangle P_1Q_1R_1.

    P(3,1)→P1(−2,−3)P(3,1) \to P_1(-2,-3) Q(4,1)→Q1(−1,−3)Q(4,1) \to Q_1(-1,-3) R(4,3)→R1(−1,−1)R(4,3) \to R_1(-1,-1)
  2. Determine the change in x and y coordinates.

    For the x-coordinates:
    3→−23 \to -2 (change of −5-5)
    4→−14 \to -1 (change of −5-5)
    4→−14 \to -1 (change of −5-5)
    For the y-coordinates:
    1→−31 \to -3 (change of −4-4)
    1→−31 \to -3 (change of −4-4)
    3→−13 \to -1 (change of −4-4)

  3. Describe the transformation.

    The transformation is a translation by the vector (−5−4)\begin{pmatrix} -5 \\ -4 \end{pmatrix}.

    Translation by vector (−5−4)\boxed{\text{Translation by vector } \begin{pmatrix} -5 \\ -4 \end{pmatrix}}

    Part (c):
    △P2Q2R2\triangle P_2Q_2R_2 is the image of △PQR\triangle PQR under a reflection in the line y=xy=x.
    The rule for reflection in the line y=xy=x is (x,y)→(y,x)(x,y) \to (y,x).

  4. Apply the reflection rule to point P.

    P(3,1)→P2(1,3)P(3,1) \to P_2(1,3)
  5. Apply the reflection rule to point Q.

    Q(4,1)→Q2(1,4)Q(4,1) \to Q_2(1,4)
  6. Apply the reflection rule to point R.

    R(4,3)→R2(3,4)R(4,3) \to R_2(3,4)

    The vertices of △P2Q2R2\triangle P_2Q_2R_2 are P2(1,3)P_2(1,3), Q2(1,4)Q_2(1,4), and R2(3,4)R_2(3,4).
    To draw △P2Q2R2\triangle P_2Q_2R_2, plot these points and connect them.

    Part (d):
    △PQR\triangle PQR is enlarged with centre (0,1)(0,1) and scale factor −12-\frac{1}{2} onto △P3Q3R3\triangle P_3Q_3R_3.
    The formula for enlargement with centre (a,b)(a,b) and scale factor kk is x′=a+k(x−a)x' = a + k(x-a) and y′=b+k(y−b)y' = b + k(y-b). Here, (a,b)=(0,1)(a,b) = (0,1) and k=−12k = -\frac{1}{2}.

  7. Calculate P3P_3.

    For P(3,1)P(3,1):

    x3=0+(−12)(3−0)=−32x_3 = 0 + \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)(3-0) = -\frac{3}{2} y3=1+(−12)(1−1)=1+0=1y_3 = 1 + \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)(1-1) = 1 + 0 = 1 P3(−32,1)P_3\left(-\frac{3}{2}, 1\right)
  8. Calculate Q3Q_3.

    For Q(4,1)Q(4,1):

    x3=0+(−12)(4−0)=−2x_3 = 0 + \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)(4-0) = -2 y3=1+(−12)(1−1)=1+0=1y_3 = 1 + \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)(1-1) = 1 + 0 = 1 Q3(−2,1)Q_3(-2, 1)
  9. Calculate R3R_3.

    For R(4,3)R(4,3):

    x3=0+(−12)(4−0)=−2x_3 = 0 + \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)(4-0) = -2 y3=1+(−12)(3−1)=1+(−12)(2)=1−1=0y_3 = 1 + \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)(3-1) = 1 + \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)(2) = 1 - 1 = 0 R3(−2,0)R_3(-2, 0)

    The vertices of △P3Q3R3\triangle P_3Q_3R_3 are P3(−32,1)P_3\left(-\frac{3}{2}, 1\right), Q3(−2,1)Q_3(-2, 1), and R3(−2,0)R_3(-2, 0).
    To draw △P3Q3R3\triangle P_3Q_3R_3, plot these points and connect them.

    Part (e):
    A stretch represented by the matrix (100−2)\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & -2 \end{pmatrix} maps △PQR\triangle PQR onto △P4Q4R4\triangle P_4Q_4R_4.
    The transformation rule is (x′y′)=(100−2)(xy)=(x−2y)\begin{pmatrix} x' \\ y' \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & -2 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix} x \\ y \end{pmatrix} = \begin{pmatrix} x \\ -2y \end{pmatrix}.

  10. Calculate P4P_4.

    x4=3x_4 = 3 y4=−2(1)=−2y_4 = -2(1) = -2 P4(3,−2)P_4(3, -2)
  11. Calculate Q4Q_4.

    For Q(4,1)Q(4,1):

    x4=4x_4 = 4 y4=−2(1)=−2y_4 = -2(1) = -2 Q4(4,−2)Q_4(4, -2)
  12. Calculate R4R_4.

    For R(4,3)R(4,3):

    x4=4x_4 = 4 y4=−2(3)=−6y_4 = -2(3) = -6 R4(4,−6)R_4(4, -6)

    The vertices of △P4Q4R4\triangle P_4Q_4R_4 are P4(3,−2)P_4(3, -2), Q4(4,−2)Q_4(4, -2), and R4(4,−6)R_4(4, -6).
