The problem is
T(x + yi) = x - yi
Show that this is a linear transformation and find the matrix of the transformation using the following basis
(1+i, 1-i)
ARGH
I am having trouble with the complex numbers for some reason!
To show that it is linear I have to show
T(x + yi + a + bi) = x + (-yi) + a + (-bi) = x + a + (- i(y +b)) = T(x + yi + a +bi) = x + (-yi) + a + (-bi)
T(k(x + yi)) = k(x + (-yi)) = kx + k(-yi) = T(k(x + (-yi)) = kT(x + (-yi))
Is this correct?
And as for finding the matrix. OY!
I know B = [ [T(1+i)] [T(1-i)] ]
So I know how to do it in theory, kind of I guess. But I just don't know how to start :/
