§6.3 Orthogonal Projections §6.4 The Gram – Schmidt Process What is Gram – Schmidt Process? Goal: Form an orthogonal basis for a subspace W. So {v1, v2} is an orthogonal basis for W. §6.4 The Gram – Schmidt Process §6.4 The Gram – Schmidt Process Proof ：For 1≤ k ≤p, let Wk = Span{x1,…,xk}. Set v1 = x1, so that span{v1} = Span{x1}. Suppose, for some k p, we have constructed v1,…,vk so that {v1,…,vk} is an orthogonal basis for Wk. Define By the Orthogonal Decomposition Theorem, vk+1 is orthogonal to Wk. Note that projWkxk+1 is in Wk and hence also in Wk+1. Since xk+1 is in Wk+1, so i
