Mathematics II (MAL1020)
Assignment I
—————————————————————————————————–
Note: There are total 13 questions. Attempt any 10.

1. Show that the set {(x1 , x2 , x3 , x4 ) ∈ R4 : x3 = 5x4 + b} is a subspace of R4 if b = 0. Also


comment on the case when b ̸= 0.
2. If W1 and W2 are 2 dimensional subspaces of R3 , show that W1 ∪W2 is a subspace iff W1 = W2 .
3. (a). Give an example of a function ϕ : R2 → R such that ϕ(αv) = αϕ(v) for all α ∈ R and
for all v ∈ R2 but ϕ is not a linear transformation.
(b). Give an example of a function ϕ : C → C such that ϕ(w + z) = ϕ(w) + ϕ(z) for all
w, z ∈ C but ϕ is not a linear transformation.
4. Suppose U, W, V are finite dimensional vector spaces. Let S : V → W and T : U → V be
linear transformations. Prove that

7. Define T : R3 → R3 by T (x, y, z) = (5x + y, 2y, 3x + 8z). Find a basis of R3 with respect to
which T has a diagonal matrix.

Z 1
< p, q >= p(x)q(x)dx
0

Apply the Gram-Schmidt procedeure to the basis {1, x, x2 , x3 } to produce an orthonormal


basis of P3 (R).
9. Prove/Disprove
