Question 5
Important: There are several variations of this question in the system. If you decide to resubmit your answers, make sure to re-read this question. (Difficulty:
)

Let x and

be vectors in

.
= x
T

In the lecture, we defined the inner product between two vectors as x, y

y.

This is the

standard way of defining it, and probably the one that you have been using since the high school. But that does not mean that there is only one way of defining it. Let's create a new one! We just need to define it in such a way that the properties of the inner product hold for the new definition. For example, consider

x, y

= x

3 4 0

4 2 4

0 4 6

y .

Is x, y an inner product? Or, in other words, does every property of the inner product hold for this new definition? No Yes

Question 6

Important: There are several variations of this question in the system. If you decide to resubmit your answers, make sure to re-read this question. (Difficulty ) Consider a line on the 2-D plane defined by the cartesian basis, {e1 , e2 } (
e1 = [ 1 0 ]

and

e2 = [

0 1

] ).

Let x

= [

x1 x2

be the coordinate of a point on the line :

You want to apply the following transformation to the line :

A translation of

[1,

1]

followed by a scaling of

followed by a rotation in the

trigonometric (counter-clockwise) direction (with the origin as center) by /4

to obtain (the figure is only here to help you visualize the transformation)

This transformation maps the point of coordinates x to a point of coordinates y. Since the transformation is affine, one can write it as

y = [

a c

b d

]x + [

f g

What are the numerical values of a , b, c, d, f , g ? Enter space separated decimal values, in order (value of a, then of b, then of ...)

Question 7
(Difficulty: ) This question is related to the proposed Numerical Examples. If you have not done them yet, please do so before answering.

The Gram-Schmidt process takes a linearly independent set V produces an orthonormal set E
V. = {e1 , e2 , . . . ek } ,

= {v1 , v2 , . . . vk }

and
n

that spans the same subspace of R

as

Consider the three vectors


v1 = v2 = v3 = 0.8660 0.5000 0 0 0.5000 0.8660 1.7320 3.0000 3.4640

Does the output matrix in this case, represent a set of orthonormal vectors? It is not a set of orthonormal vectors, because It is a set of orthonormal vectors, because It is a set of orthonormal vectors, because
E E
T

E I.

E = I.

det(E ) = 0. rank(E ) > 1.

It is not a set of orthonormal vectors, because It is a set of orthonormal vectors, because It is a set of orthonormal vectors, because

rank(E ) = 3. det(E ) > 0.
