Step by step solution

01

Compute the projection of the vector

The projection of vector x→onto u→is,

projL(x→)=(x→⋅u→uu)u→

Here,x→=x1x2x3∈3.

Thus, the projection is,

projL(x→)=projxx1x2x3=x1x2x3⋅u1u2u3u1u2u3=u12u1u2u1u3u2u1u22u2u3u3u1u3u2u32x1x2x3

02

Compute the reflection of the vector

The reflection of vectorx→ is,

refL(x→)=2projL(x→)−(x→)

Here, x→=x1x2x3∈3

Thus, the reflection is,

refLx1x2x3=2u12u1u2u1u3u2u1u22u2u3u3u1u3u2u32x1x2x3−x1x2x3refLx1x2x3=2u12−12u1u22u1u32u2u12u22−12u2u32u3u12u3u22u32−1x1x2x3

03

Compute the matrix

As the matrix A is the linear transformation of T(x→)=refL(x→),

A=2u12−12u1u22u1u32u2u12u22−12u2u32u3u12u3u22u32−1

Hence, the matrix A=2u12−12u1u22u1u32u2u12u22−12u2u32u3u12u3u22u32−1withaii=2ui2−1, aij=2uiuj w³ó±ð²Ô i≠j.
