Complete ${(2,3,1),(1,4,3)}$ to a basis of $Bbb R^3$












3














Having the following set: $C = {(2,3,1),(1,4,3)}$ I want to be able to generate; $V = mathbb{R}^3$



Since $V = mathbb{R}^3$ has dimension $3$, $C$ also needs to have dimension $3$, however, how do I find the vector I need to add to $C$ in order to be able to generate $V$?



Is sufficient to have 3 vectors that are Linearly Independent and then I can generate $V$? And how do I find it?



Thank you!

          Take any vector $(a,b,c)$ which is not a linear combination of $(2,3,1)$ and $(1,4,3)$. For instance $(1,0,0)$ will do. In fact, any vector $(a,b,c)$ such that $bneq a+c$ will do.

            This method works in the general case and does not require using the "cross product":



            Let $C=(v_1,v_2)$ as in the question. Choose any basis of $mathbb{R}^3$. For simplicity we shall take $e_1,e_2,e_3$. Then look at



            $(v_1,v_2,e_1)$, $(v_1,v_2,e_2)$ and $(v_1,v_2,e_3)$.



            One of them is necessarily a linearly independent sequence of vectors (this can be checked by hand, for example you can take $e_1$ as in Jose' answer).



            Indeed, if by contradiction all of them were linearly dependent then since $v_1,v_2$ are independent $e_1,e_2,e_3 in text{Span} {v_1,v_2}$. But this would mean that $mathbb{R}^3 = text{Span} {v_1,v_2}$ which is impossible.

            If you have 3 linearly independent vectors, they will span all of $mathbb{R}^3$ (why?).



            To get a third one, easiest way is to construct one perpendicular to them both, which is to take a cross product of the two you have

            Just take the cross product:
            $$(2,3,1) times (1,4,3) = (5,-5,5)$$



            Then ${(2,3,1),(1,4,3),(5,-5,5)}$ is linearly independent and hence a basis for $mathbb{R}^3$.

                    Just take the cross product:
                    $$(2,3,1) times (1,4,3) = (5,-5,5)$$



                    Then ${(2,3,1),(1,4,3),(5,-5,5)}$ is linearly independent and hence a basis for $mathbb{R}^3$.

                    Папа Каликст III Кардиналы, возведённые Папой римским Каликстом III  — 9 прелатов и мирян были возведены в сан кардинала на двух Консисториях за трёхлетний понтификат Каликста III. Самой крупной консисторией были Консистория от 17 декабря 1456 года, на которой было возведено шесть кардиналов. Папа Каллист III хотел назвать отца Жан Сорета, O.Carm., епископом или кардиналом, но он отказался, потому что хотел посвятить себя своему ордену и продвижению религиозного рвения и соблюдения устава монашеского ордена. Консистория от 17 сентября 1456 года | Луис Хуан дель Мила, племянник Его Святейшества, епископ Сегорбе (королевство Арагон); Жайме Португальский, администратор архиепархии Лиссабона (королевство Португалия); Родриго де Борха-и-Борха, племянник Его Святейшества, ризничий Валенсии (Папская область).

Disambiguazione – Se stai cercando il concetto di deduzione in economia, vedi deduzione fiscale . Il ragionamento deduttivo umano assimilato a un meccanismo Il metodo deduttivo o deduzione è il procedimento razionale che fa derivare una certa conclusione da premesse più generiche, dentro cui quella conclusione è implicita. Il termine significa letteralmente «condurre da», perché proviene dal latino "de" (traducibile con da , preposizione indicante provenienza, o moto di discesa dall'alto verso il basso) e "ducere" ( condurre ). Questo metodo parte da postulati e princìpi primi e, attraverso una serie di rigorose concatenazioni logiche, procede verso determinazioni più particolari attinenti alla realtà tangi
