Question: Let U be a square matrix with orthogonal columns. Explain why U is invertible. (Mention the theorem you use.)

Short Answer

Expert verified

It is proved that the matrix U is invertible.

Step by step solution

01

Write the given information

It is given that U is a square matrix with orthogonal columns.

02

Prove that U is invertible

Since columns of the matrix U are orthogonal, therefore according to Theorem 6; \({U^T}U = I\).

Using the Invertible Matrix Theorem, if there is a square matrix A, such that \(AD = I\), then the matrix is invertible.

Thus, the matrix U is invertible.

A healthy child’s systolic blood pressure (in millimetres of mercury) and weight (in pounds) are approximately related by the equation

\({\beta _0} + {\beta _1}\ln w = p\)

Use the following experimental data to estimate the systolic blood pressure of healthy child weighing 100 pounds.

\(\begin{array} w&\\ & {44}&{61}&{81}&{113}&{131} \\ \hline {\ln w}&\\vline & {3.78}&{4.11}&{4.39}&{4.73}&{4.88} \\ \hline p&\\vline & {91}&{98}&{103}&{110}&{112} \end{array}\)

Let \({\mathbb{R}^{\bf{2}}}\) have the inner product of Example 1. Show that the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality holds for \({\bf{x}} = \left( {{\bf{3}}, - {\bf{2}}} \right)\) and \({\bf{y}} = \left( { - {\bf{2}},{\bf{1}}} \right)\). (Suggestion: Study \({\left| {\left\langle {{\bf{x}},{\bf{y}}} \right\rangle } \right|^{\bf{2}}}\).)

Let \(T:{\mathbb{R}^n} \to {\mathbb{R}^n}\) be a linear transformation that preserves lengths; that is, \(\left\| {T\left( {\bf{x}} \right)} \right\| = \left\| {\bf{x}} \right\|\) for all x in \({\mathbb{R}^n}\).

  1. Show that T also preserves orthogonality; that is, \(T\left( {\bf{x}} \right) \cdot T\left( {\bf{y}} \right) = 0\) whenever \({\bf{x}} \cdot {\bf{y}} = 0\).
  2. Show that the standard matrix of T is an orthogonal matrix.

In Exercises 1-6, the given set is a basis for a subspace W. Use the Gram-Schmidt process to produce an orthogonal basis for W.
