Leonardo da Vinci and the resolution of forces. Leonardo (1452鈥1519) asked himself how the weight of a body, supported by two strings of different length, is apportioned between the two strings.

Three forces are acting at the point D: the tensions and in the strings and the weight . Leonardo believed that

Was he right? (Source: Les Manuscripts de L茅onard de Vinci, published by Ravaisson-Mollien, Paris, 1890.)
Hint: Resolveinto a horizontal and a vertical component; do the same for . Since the system is at rest, the equationholds. Express the ratios
and . In terms ofand , using trigonometric functions, and compare the results.
Question: If the matrices Aand Bare symmetric and Bis invertible, which of the matrices in Exercise 13 through 20 must be symmetric as well?.
Consider a basis of a subspaceVofrole="math" localid="1659434380505" . Show that a vector inrole="math" localid="1659434402220" is orthogonal toV if and only if is orthogonal to all vectors.
If A and B are arbitrary matrices, which of the matrices in Exercise 21 through 26 must be symmetric?
