Properties of Vector Spaces :
Subspaces of Vector Spaces: Check to see if there are any properties inherited from V:
Subspace Criterion in two forms:
More Examples: The set of all symmetric matrices. The set of all lower triangular matrices. The set of all upper triangular matrices. The set of all diagonal matrices.
Example: Subset of the Vector Space That is Not a Subspace
Example: Lines and Planes Through the Origin as Subspaces of R2 and R3
The Intersection of Subspaces
The Span of the Set of Vectors
Example: Spaces Spanned by One or Two Vectors in 3-space Span of a subset in V is a subspace of V:
Exercises: Determine if the following are subspaces of Mnxn.
