If \(A\) is an \(m \times n\) matrix of rank \(r,\) what are the dimensions of \(N(A)\) and \(N\left(A^{T}\right) ?\) Explain.
Use equation (1) with weight vector \(\mathbf{w}=\) \(\left(\frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{4}\right)^{T}\) to define an inner product for \(\mathbb{R}^{3},\) and let \(\mathbf{x}=(1,1,1)^{T}\) and \(\mathbf{y}=(-5,1,3)^{T}\) (a) Show that \(x\) and \(y\) are orthogonal with respect to this inner product. (b) Compute the values of \(\|\mathbf{x}\|\) and \(\|\mathbf{y}\|\) with respect to this inner product.
Let \(\theta\) be a fixed real number and let $$\mathbf{x}_{1}=\left(\begin{array}{c} \cos \theta \\ \sin \theta \end{array}\right) \quad \text { and } \quad \mathbf{x}_{2}=\left(\begin{array}{r} -\sin \theta \\ \cos \theta \end{array}\right)$$ (a) Show that \(\left\\{\mathbf{x}_{1}, \mathbf{x}_{2}\right\\}\) is an orthonormal basis for \(\mathbb{R}^{2}\) (b) Given a vector \(\mathbf{y}\) in \(\mathbb{R}^{2},\) write it as a linear combination \(c_{1} \mathbf{x}_{1}+c_{2} \mathbf{x}_{2}\) (c) Verify that $$c_{1}^{2}+c_{2}^{2}=\|\mathbf{y}\|^{2}=y_{1}^{2}+y_{2}^{2}$$
Use the zeros of the Legendre polynomial \(P_{2}(x)\) to obtain a two-point quadrature formula $$\int_{-1}^{1} f(x) d x \approx A_{1} f\left(x_{1}\right)+A_{2} f\left(x_{2}\right)$$
Let \(\mathbf{x}=(-1,-1,1,1)^{T}\) and \(\mathbf{y}=(1,1,5,-3)^{T}\) Show that \(\mathbf{x} \perp \mathbf{y}\). Calculate \(\|\mathbf{x}\|_{2},\|\mathbf{y}\|_{2},\|\mathbf{x}+\mathbf{y}\|_{2}\) and verify that the Pythagorean law holds.
