What is the use of homogeneous coordinates and matrix representation?

(a) To treat all 3 transformations in a consistent way

(b) To scale

(c) To rotate

(d) To shear the object

This question was addressed to me in final exam.

This intriguing question originated from Matrix Representations and Homogeneous Coordinates topic in chapter 2D Transformation and Viewing of Computer Graphics
