Consider the transformation T:R2R2T: \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2 that projects a vector x\vx onto the line y=5xy = 5x.
  • Find a vector parallel to the line. We call any vector that is a scalar multiple of the (parallel) direction of the line the direction vector of the line d\vd.
  • Find T(d)T(\vd) by geometric reasoning (i.e. think about the effect of the transformation: no computation is required).
