1. Determine the orthogonal complement of the subspace of R3given by:
V={(x, y, z)T: 2xโˆ’y+z= 0}
and find an orthonormal basis for it.
2. Find the orthogonal projection of R3onto the kernel of the map T:
R3โ†’Rdefined by T((x, y, z)T) = xโˆ’y+z.
3. State and prove the Pythagorean theorem for inner product spaces.
4. Show that if Aand Bare orthogonal matrices, then AB is an orthog-
onal matrix.
5. Use the method of least squares in order to find the best approximation
to a solution for the system:
3x+y= 1
xโˆ’y= 2
x+ 3y=โˆ’1
6. Find an orthonormal basis for the subspace of R4defined by:
V={(x, y, z, w )T: 3xโˆ’y= 0, x +y+w= 0}

  1. Determine the orthogonal complement of the subspace of R^3 given by:

V = {(x, y, z)T^ : 2x โˆ’ y + z = 0} and find an orthonormal basis for it.

  1. Find the orthogonal projection of R^3 onto the kernel of the map T : R^3 โ†’ R defined by T ((x, y, z)T^ ) = x โˆ’ y + z.
  2. State and prove the Pythagorean theorem for inner product spaces.
  3. Show that if A and B are orthogonal matrices, then AB is an orthog- onal matrix.
  4. Use the method of least squares in order to find the best approximation to a solution for the system: 3 x + y = 1 x โˆ’ y = 2 x + 3y = โˆ’ 1
  5. Find an orthonormal basis for the subspace of R^4 defined by:

V = {(x, y, z, w)T^ : 3x โˆ’ y = 0, x + y + w = 0}
