Given $\begin{bmatrix} 2-\lambda & -2 & 3\\ 1 & -1-\lambda & 3 \\ 1 & -2 & 4-\lambda \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} v_1\\ v_2 \\ v_3 \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix} 0\\ 0 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}$ $\lambda_1=1,\lambda_2=3$ a) For $\lambda=1$ let $B=A-\lambda_1I$ $B=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & -2 & 3\\ 1 & -2 & 3 \\ 1 & -2 & 3 \end{bmatrix}$ Let $r,s$ be free variables. $\vec{V}=r(2,1,0)+s(-3,0,1) \\ E_1=\{(2,1,0);(-3,0,1)\} \rightarrow dim(E_1)=2$ Let $v_1=u_1=(-3,1,0)\\ v_2=u_2=(2,1,0)$ Use the Gram-Schmidt procedure: $u_2=v_2-\frac{}{||u_1||^2} u_1=(2,1,0)+\frac{6}{10}(-3,0,1)=\frac{1}{5}(1,5,3)$ An orthogonal basis for $E_1=\{(-3,0,1);(1,5,3)\}$ b) $\lambda=3$ $B=\begin{bmatrix} -1 & -2 & 3\\ 1 & -4 & 3 \\ 1 & -2 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$ Let $t$ be free variables. $\vec{V}=t(1,1,1) \\ E_2=\{(1,11)\} \rightarrow dim(E_1)=1$ Let $v=(1,1,1)$ Obtain $=-2 \ne 0\\ =\frac{9}{5} \ne 0$ The vectors in $E_1$ are not orthogonal to the vectors in $E_2$
