3. Show that every nonempty subset of a linearly independent set of vectors is
again linearly independent.
4. Given v1-
, v2 , . . . , vk and v. Let

U = span{v1 , v2 , . . . , vk } and
W = span{v1 , v2 , . . . , vk , v}.

Show that either dim(W ) = dim(U ) or dim(W ) = dim(U ) + 1.

7. Find a single 2 ⇥ 2 matrix that performs a rotation of 60 counterclockwise,


followed by an orthogonal projection on the x-axis, followed by a reflection
about the line y = x.
8. Find the standard matrix for T : R2 ! R2 that projects a vector orthogonally
onto the x-axis and then reflects that vector about the y-axis.
9. Consider an invertible linear transformation L : R2 ! R2 . Show that the
geometric e↵ect of L is the same as appropriate succession of shears, con-
tractions, dilations, and reflections.
