Not what you're looking for?
See the attached file.
In each part find as many linearly independent eigenvectors as you can by inspection (by visualizing the effect of the transformation of R^2). For each of your eigenvectors, find the corresponding eigenvalue by inspection; then check your results by computing the eigenvalues and bases for the eigenspaces from the standard matrix for the transformation.
a) Reflection about the x-axis.
b) Reflection about the y-axis.
c) Reflection about y=x.
d) Shear in the x-direction with factor k.
e) Shear in the y-direction with factor k.
f) Rotation through the angle ϴ
