Q1. Let , be non-zero orthogonal vectors and let T: be the linear transformation defined by
 
T() = 2 () + 2 () -
 
and let A = [T] be its standard matrix.
 
(a) Prove that . [Hint: Do not attempt to "compute" A. Instead, think about how is related to T.]
 
(b) Using (a), determine whether T is one-to-one and/or onto. Justify your answers.
 
(c) Consider the case where and . Determine explicitly as a vector in . Hence, determine A in this particular case.
 
(d) Returning now to to the general case, let = {, } be the plane in spanned by and . Referring to , give a one-sentence description of what T does geometrically. No justification is necessary. [Hint: Use part (c) for inspiration. A correct description will allow you to immediately see why is true.]
