Let S1 span100 110 and S2 span001010 be a subspaces of R3
Let S_1 = span((1,0,0), (1,1,0)) and S^2 = span((0,0,1),(0,1,0)) be a subspaces of R^3. Determine the dimension and a basis for the subspace S_1 S_2.
Solution
A vector in S1 is:
a(1,0,0)+b(1,1,0)=(a+b,b,0)
A vector in S2 is:
r(0,0,1)+s(0,1,0)=(0,s,r)
So a vector in intersectin would be:
(a+b,b,0)=(0,s,r)
Hence, r=0
a+b=0
So the vector is:
s(0,1,0)
Hence it is spanned by just one vector so dimension is 1
Basis is {(0,1,0)}
