Find a unit vector \(u\) orthogonal to: (a) \(v=[1,2,3]\) and \(w=[1,-1,2]\) (b) \(v=3 \mathbf{i}-\mathbf{j}+2 \mathbf{k}\) and \(w=4 \mathbf{i}-2 \mathbf{j}-\mathbf{k}\)
Show that if \(S_{1}\) and \(S_{2}\) are subsets of a vector space \(\mathrm{V}\) such that \(S_{1} \subseteq S_{2}\), then $\operatorname{span}\left(S_{1}\right) \subseteq \operatorname{span}\left(S_{2}\right) .\( In particular, if \)S_{1} \subseteq S_{2}\( and \)\operatorname{span}\left(S_{1}\right)=\mathrm{V}$, deduce that span \(\left(S_{2}\right)=\mathrm{V}\).

A real-valued function \(f\) defined on the real line is called an even function if \(f(-t)=f(t)\) for each real number \(t\). Prove that the set of even functions defined on the real line with the operations of addition and scalar multiplication defined in Example 3 is a vector space.
Label the following statements as true or false. (a) If \(V\) is a vector space and \(W\) is a subset of \(V\) that is a vector space, then \(W\) is a subspace of \(V\). (b) The empty set is a subspace of every vector space. (c) If \(V\) is a vector space other than the zero vector space, then \(V\) contains a subspace \(W\) such that \(W \neq V\). (d) The intersection of any two subsets of \(V\) is a subspace of \(V\). (e) An \(n \times n\) diagonal matrix can never have more than \(n\) nonzero entries. (f) The trace of a square matrix is the product of its diagonal entries. (g) Let \(\mathrm{W}\) be the \(x y\)-plane in \(\mathrm{R}^{3}\); that is, $\mathrm{W}=\left\\{\left(a_{1}, a_{2}, 0\right): a_{1}, a_{2} \in R\right\\}\(. Then \)W=R^{2}$.
Determine whether the following sets are linearly dependent or linearly independent. (a) $\left\\{\left(\begin{array}{rr}1 & -3 \\ -2 & 4\end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr}-2 & 6 \\ 4 & -8\end{array}\right)\right\\}\( in \)\mathrm{M}_{2 \times 2}(R)$ (b) $\left\\{\left(\begin{array}{rr}1 & -2 \\ -1 & 4\end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr}-1 & 1 \\ 2 & -4\end{array}\right)\right\\}\( in \)\mathrm{M}_{2 \times 2}(R)$ (c) \(\left\\{x^{3}+2 x^{2},-x^{2}+3 x+1, x^{3}-x^{2}+2 x-1\right\\}\) in \(\mathrm{P}_{3}(R)\) (d) \(\left\\{x^{3}-x, 2 x^{2}+4,-2 x^{3}+3 x^{2}+2 x+6\right\\}\) in \(\mathrm{P}_{3}(R)\) (e) \(\\{(1,-1,2),(1,-2,1),(1,1,4)\\}\) in \(\mathbf{R}^{3}\) (f) \(\\{(1,-1,2),(2,0,1),(-1,2,-1)\\}\) in \(\mathbf{R}^{3}\) (g) $\left\\{\left(\begin{array}{rr}1 & 0 \\ -2 & 1\end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr}0 & -1 \\ 1 & 1\end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr}-1 & 2 \\ 1 & 0\end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr}2 & 1 \\ -4 & 4\end{array}\right)\right\\}\( in \)\mathrm{M}_{2 \times 2}(R)$ (h) $\left\\{\left(\begin{array}{rr}1 & 0 \\ -2 & 1\end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr}0 & -1 \\ 1 & 1\end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr}-1 & 2 \\ 1 & 0\end{array}\right),\left(\begin{array}{rr}2 & 1 \\ 2 & -2\end{array}\right)\right\\}\( in \)\mathrm{M}_{2 \times 2}(R)$ (i) \(\left\\{x^{4}-x^{3}+5 x^{2}-8 x+6,-x^{4}+x^{3}-5 x^{2}+5 x-3\right.\), \(\left.x^{4}+3 x^{2}-3 x+5,2 x^{4}+3 x^{3}+4 x^{2}-x+1, x^{3}-x+2\right\\}\) in \(\mathrm{P}_{4}(R)\) (j) \(\left\\{x^{4}-x^{3}+5 x^{2}-8 x+6,-x^{4}+x^{3}-5 x^{2}+5 x-3,\right.\), \(\left.x^{4}+3 x^{2}-3 x+5,2 x^{4}+x^{3}+4 x^{2}+8 x\right\\}\) in \(\mathrm{P}_{4}(R)\) \({ }^{3}\) The computations in Exercise \(2(\mathrm{~g}),(\mathrm{h}),(\mathrm{i})\), and \((\mathrm{j})\) are tedious unless technology is used.
