Orthogonality, projections and least squares
Dot products, orthonormal bases, projection onto a subspace, fitting a line.
The projection of b onto the column space of A is the closest point; the least-squares solution solves AᵀA x = Aᵀ b. Gram-Schmidt turns any basis orthonormal. Picture it: dropping a perpendicular from a point onto a plane. Think it: least squares is regression; the normal equations are calculus's "set the gradient to zero" done with matrices.

Korak po koraku
- \det A = 1
A matrix is invertible only when its determinant is non-zero.
- A^{-1} = \frac{1}{\det A}\begin{pmatrix} d & -b \\ -c & a \end{pmatrix} = \frac{1}{1}\left[\begin{matrix}1 & -1\\-1 & 2\end{matrix}\right]
For 2×2: swap the diagonal, negate the off-diagonal, divide by the determinant.
- A^{-1} = \left[\begin{matrix}1 & -1\\-1 & 2\end{matrix}\right]

Vprašanja, ki jih ljudje sprašujejo
What does a determinant mean geometrically?
It is the factor by which the matrix scales area (2×2) or volume (3×3), with a negative sign if orientation flips. Zero means the matrix flattens space and cannot be undone.
What is an eigenvector?
A direction the matrix does not turn: it only stretches it by the eigenvalue. Along eigenvectors a complicated matrix acts like multiplication by a number.
Why is matrix multiplication not commutative?
Because a matrix is a transformation and AB means "do B, then A". Rotating then reflecting is not the same as reflecting then rotating.
