Riddle Along

Four cars drive in the Sahara desert at constant speeds and with constant directions. A meets B, C, D; B meets C, D. Do C and D meet?

Goals

1. compute Rank T over A 2. Compute over 3. Solve systems of linear equations

Theorems

1. Given V' -> V -> W -> W' (where the linear transformations are Q, T, P respectively)
such that P and Q are invertible (i.e. Q is surjective and P is injective) then rank T = rank PTQ

2. if T: V -> W, V with basis and W with basis rank = rank T

3. if P and Q are invertible matrices, A is some other matrix, rank A = rank PAQ

Definitions

if A = , then it is linear transformation
