what is the mathematical definition of orthogonal?

In elementary geometry, orthogonal is the same as perpendicular. Two lines or curves are orthogonal if they are perpendicular at their point of intersection. Two vectors and of the real plane or the real space are orthogonal iff their dot product .

Thus rotation matrices are always orthogonal. ... The columns (and rows) of an orthogonal matrix are unit vectors that are orthogonal to each other. Since they are unit vectors we know we can write the first column as . The only vectors orthogonal to are .

u is not a scalar multiple of v. So, they are not parallel, The scalar product u. v=0 . Therefore, they are orthogonal.

Operational Definition. A statement that describes how to measure a particular variable or how to define a particular term. Data. Facts, figures, and other evidence gathered through observations. Communicating.

A pair of inverse operations is defined as two operations that will be performed on a number or. variable, that always results in the original number or variable. Another way to think of this is. that the two inverse operations “undo” each other. For example, addition and subtraction are.

In mathematics, a polynomial is an expression consisting of variables (also called indeterminates) and coefficients, that involves only the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponents of variables. An example of a polynomial of a single indeterminate, x, is x2 − 4x + 7.

For example sin(x),cos(x) are orthogonal. ... Same with cosine, and mixed sin and cos are 0. This forms an orthonormal basis. Meaning all the basis vectors are orthogonal, and the inner product of any basis vector with itself is 1.

Parallelogram: a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. Equivalent conditions are that opposite sides are of equal length; that opposite angles are equal; or that the diagonals bisect each other.

noun. Mathematics. (in plane Cartesian coordinates) the y-coordinate of a point: its distance from the x-axis measured parallel to the y-axis.

The dot product of the zero vector with the given vector is zero, so the zero vector must be orthogonal to the given vector. This is OK. Math books often use the fact that the zero vector is orthogonal to every vector (of the same type). ... Of course, the length of the zero vector is zero, so it is not a unit normal.

In mathematics, an operator is generally a mapping or function that acts on elements of a space to produce elements of another space (possibly the same space, sometimes required to be the same space). ... Operator is also used for denoting the symbol of a mathematical operation.

If the dot product two vectors is 0, they are orthogonal; in other words, they are perpendicular. ... (Recall: two vectors that are orthogonal (perpendicular) form a right angle θ=π/2=90∘.)

A set of vectors is linearly independent if none of the vectors are a linear combination of one another. If you were to put the vectors into the matrix A and set up the equation Ax = 0, then x would only yield the trivial solution (zero). Two vectors are orthogonal to one another if their dot product is zero.

For example sin(x),cos(x) are orthogonal. ... Note that ⟨sin(nx),sin(mx)⟩=δn,m. It is 1 if n=m and 0 else. Same with cosine, and mixed sin and cos are 0.

(a) If A and B are orthogonal n × n matrices, then AB is also orthogonal. (b) If A is an orthogonal n × n matrix, then A is invertible and A-1 is also orthogonal. Definition 7. If AT = A, then A is called a symmetric matrix.

Coordinate axes. A set of perpendicular lines which define coordinates relative to an origin. Example: x and y coordinate axes define horizontal and vertical position.

noun Mathematics. a vector perpendicular to two given vectors, u and v, and having magnitude equal to the product of the magnitudes of the two given vectors multiplied by the sine of the angle between the two given vectors, usually represented by u × v.
