Answer by user for Linear algebra change of basis always makes a linear map...

Suppose that $T$ has rank k, then you can construct a basis made of $n-k$ vectors in Ker(T) and of $k$ vectors orthogonal to them$$\alpha=\{\alpha_1,...\alpha_k,\alpha_{k+1},...\alpha_n\}$$then...

Linear algebra change of basis always makes a linear map diagonal.

Prove that there exist bases $\alpha $ and $\beta$ for V such that $ [T]_{\alpha}^{\beta} $ is a diagonal matrix with each diagonal entry equal to either 0 or 1.Originally i thought that T=I was the...
