Vector Spaces, Subspaces and Dimension
Not what you're looking for?
V3(R) represents the set of vectors in 3D space. What kind of geometrical objects are represented by the various subspaces of V3(R)?
i.e A 1D subspace S with basis { (0, 1, 0)Transpose} represents the set of vectors parallel to the y-axis, so the set of points with position vectors in s is the y-axis itself.
You need only consider subspaces of dimension less than 3.

A line passing through origin represents the 1-dimensional subspace of V3.
Here are some examples:
S1 = <(1,0,0)^T> is the x-axis
S2 = <(0,1,0)^T> is the y-axis
S3 = <(0,0,1)^T> is the z-axis
Now we ...
