Tutorial Sheet 2 - Module 6
BMAT201L-Complex Variables and Linear Algebra

1. Show that an orthogonal set of vectors in linearly independent.

2. Let V be an inner product space and W ⊂ V . Let W ⊥ denote the set of all vectors
in V orthogonal to every vector in W , that is W ⊥ = {v ∈ V : ⟨v, w⟩ = 0, ∀w ∈
W }. Show that W ⊥ is a subspace. For V = R3 and W = {(1, 1, 0), (0, 1, 0)} find
W ⊥.

3. consider the inner product ⟨(x1 , y1 ), (x2 , y2 )⟩ = 3x1 y1 +2x2 y2 on R2 . Is {(2, 3), (−4, 4)}
an orthonormal set with respect to this inner product? If no, then convert it to
an orthonormal set {v1 , v2 } and express (4, 0) as av1 + bv2 .

4. Let v1 = (1, 0, 1, 1) and v2 = (0, 1, 1, 1) be two vectors in the inner product space
R4 with the usual inner product. Let v3 = v2 + av1 , where a ∈ R. Find the value
of a for which v3 and v1 are orthogonal.

5. Consider the inner product space V = R3 with the standard inner product. Let
v1 = (1, 2, 3) and v2 = (−1, −2, 35 ) be two vectors in V .

(a) Find ∥v1 ∥ and ∥v2 ∥.


(b) Is {v1 , v2 } an orthonormal set? If no, convert it into an orthonormal set.
(c) Find a vector v3 = (a, b, c) ∈ V such that {v1 , v2 , v3 } forms an orthogonal
set.

6. Consider the vector space of all polynomials of degree at most 2 ˆwith real coeffi-

cients, P2 (R). Define an inner product on P2 (R) as ⟨p(x), q(x)⟩ = p(x)q(x) dx.

(a) Under this inner product, what is ∥ 2
x∥?
(b) Starting from the basis {1, x, x2 } of P2 (R), construct an orthonormal basis
for P2 (R).

7. Let T : R3 → R4 be defined by T (x, y, z) = (x + y, y + z, x + 2y + z, x − z). Find


an orthonormal basis for the kernel and range of T .

8. Let W = {(x, y, z) ∈ R3 : ⟨(x, y, z), (1, 2, 3)⟩ = 0}. Find an orthonormal basis for
W.
