What happens if \(A\mathbf{d} = \mathbf{0}\)?
If \(A\) is \(3 \times 3\) and invertible, show that the image of the plane through the origin with normal \(\mathbf{n}\) is the plane through the origin with normal \(\mathbf{n}_{1} = B\mathbf{n}\) where \(B = (A^{-1})^{T}\). [Hint: Use the fact that \(\mathbf{v}\bullet \mathbf{w} = \mathbf{v}^{T}\mathbf{w}\) to show that \(\mathbf{n}_{1}\bullet (A\mathbf{p}) = \mathbf{n}\bullet \mathbf{p}\) for each \(\mathbf{p}\) in \(\mathbb{R}^3\).]
Let \(L\) be the line through the origin in \(\mathbb{R}^2\) with direction vector \(\mathbf{d} = \left[ \begin{array}{r} a\\ b\\ \end{array} \right] \neq 0\).

- Write \(\mathbf{v} = \left[ \begin{array}{r} x\\ y \end{array} \right]\).
\[\begin{aligned} P_{L}(\mathbf{v}) = \left(\frac{\mathbf{v}\bullet \mathbf{d}}{\| \mathbf{d} \|^2}\right)\mathbf{d} & = \frac{ax + by}{a^2 + b^2}\left[ \begin{array}{r} a\\ b \end{array} \right] \\ & = \frac{1}{a^2 + b^2}\left[ \begin{array}{c} a^2x + aby\\ abx + b^2y \end{array} \right] \\ & = \frac{1}{a^2 + b^2}\left[ \begin{array}{c} a^2 + ab\\ ab + b^2 \end{array} \right] \left[ \begin{array}{r} x\\ y \end{array} \right]\end{aligned} \nonumber \]
Let \(\mathbf{n}\) be a nonzero vector in \(\mathbb{R}^3\), let \(L\) be the line through the origin with direction vector \(\mathbf{n}\), and let \(M\) be the plane through the origin with normal \(\mathbf{n}\). Show that \(P_{L}(\mathbf{v}) = Q_{L}(\mathbf{v}) + P_{M}(\mathbf{v})\) for all \(\mathbf{v}\) in \(\mathbb{R}^3\). [In this case, we say that \(P_{L} = Q_{L} + P_{M}\).]
If \(M\) is the plane through the origin in \(\mathbb{R}^3\) with normal \(\mathbf{n} = \left[ \begin{array}{r} a\\ b\\ c \end{array} \right]\), show that \(Q_{M}\) has matrix
