 | | Thus, we can use the nullspace command # to find the basis for the orthogonal complement of W. > A := matrix(3,2,[1,2,1,-1,1,1]); [1 2] [ ] A := [1 -1] [ ] [1 1] > nullspace(transpose(A)); {[2, 1, -3]} # Thus, a basis for the orthogonal complement of W is the one vector # (2,1,-3). |
 | | Thus, we know the # orhtogonal complement of W, which is the space of all vectors in # three-space that are orthogonal to everything in W, is a line through # to origin in three-space. |
 | | # # Alternatively, we have computed a basis for the orthogonal complement # of W to be one three-dimensional vector, so again we see it is a line # through the origin in three-space. |
