Question

Suppose that V is finite dimensional real vector space and that ⟨⋅, ⋅⟩ is an inner product on V.

  1. Let f∶V → R be a linear transformation. Prove that there exist a unique vector v∈V such that f(u)=⟨u,v⟩ for every u∈V.

  2. Suppose V = P2(R). Find the unique polynomial q ∈ V such that p(1)= ∫(integral -1 to 1) p(t)q(t)dt for every p∈V.
