  • Diagonalizability

    Since the eigenvalues are distinct, the eigenvectors will be linearly independent and so the matrix is diagonalizable (in fact, any symmetric matrix is diagonalizable).

  • Proving A is diagonizable

    We state the reasons, we first to form the matrix corresponding to the operator D, which is a (k+1) by (k+1) matrix as follows.

  • Matrix theory of subsets

    Now just add 3 down the diagonal: 1 5 0 1 3 -5 0 0 3 This ensures that A - 3I has nullspace = S. This provides an example of geometrically describing a subset, showing that it is a subspace, and finding a matrix with a given eigenvalue.
