1a. Explain why v1v2.
1b. Find a unit vector in the direction of v2.
1c. Find xand ywhich make B={v1,v2,v3}an orthogonal basis of R3. (Use good linear algebra
techniques; your answer will involve a RREF).
1d. Use the formulas developed in class for orthogonal bases to find α2for which s=α1v1+α2v2+α3v3.
(You do not have to find α1and α3.)

Find a basis for each of the
following. Write vectors horizontally where appropriate.
2a. Col(A)2b. Col(R)
2c. Row(A)2d. Row(R)
2e. Express r3(ie, row 3) of Aas a linear combination r3=xr1+yr2+zr4. of the other three rows of
A. (Hint: you will be on familar ground if you write the vectors vertically to solve the problem; find xy
and z. Or explain why there are no such scalars. Use good linear algebra methods)
