Back to Representing Linear Maps with Matrices

Exercise 7

Avg difficulty 3.0

Assume that h ⁣:R2→R3h\colon\mathbb{R}^{2}\to\mathbb{R}^{3} is determined by this action.

(10)↦(220)(01)↦(01−1)\begin{pmatrix}1\\ 0\end{pmatrix}\mapsto\begin{pmatrix}2\\ 2\\ 0\end{pmatrix}\qquad\begin{pmatrix}0\\ 1\end{pmatrix}\mapsto\begin{pmatrix}0\\ 1\\ -1\end{pmatrix}

Using the standard bases, find

  • the matrix representing this map;

  • a general formula for h(v⃗)h(\vec{v}).
