For a 3D truss element, transformation matrix L between local and global co-ordinates is given by ___

a) \( \begin{bmatrix}l &0&0 \\ 0&m&0\\0&0&n\end{bmatrix}\)
b) \( \begin{bmatrix}l &m&n \end{bmatrix}\)
c) \( \begin{bmatrix}l&0&n \\ 0&m&0 \end{bmatrix}\)
d) \( \begin{bmatrix}l&m&n&0&0&0\\ 0&0&0&l&m&n\end{bmatrix}\)

Answer: d
Explanation: A transformation matrix is a special matrix that can describe 2D and 3D transformations. Transformations are frequently used in linear algebra and computer graphics. Since transformations can be easily represented, combined and computed.
