1. (i) Find the transition matrix P from the basis = {(1, 2), (3, 0)} of R2 to the basis
0 = {(2, 1), (3, 2)}.
(ii) If v = (3, 2)T , find v 0 .

2. Let T : V W be a linear transformation. Let T be defined relative to bases V =

{v1 , v2 , v3 } and W = {w1 , w2 , w3 } of V and W , respectively, as follows:
T (v1 ) = w1 + w2 + w3 ,

T (v2 ) = 3w1 2w2 ,

T (v3 ) = w1 + 2w2 w3 .

(i) Find the matrix of T with respect to these bases.

(ii) Find the image of the vector v = 3v1 + 2v2 5v3 .

3. Construct an isomorphism from V = {A M22 (R)|A = AT } to R3 . Justify your answer.

4. Let A be the following matrix:

1 2 1 4
A = 0 1 2 3 .
1 0 3 2
(i) Find a basis for the row space of A.
(ii) Find a basis for the column space of A.
(iii) Find the rank of A.

5. Let A be a 3 4 matrix. Prove that the column vectors of A are linearly dependent.
