    The Projection of a plane (1)


    Projection of the plane onto a line:

    The matrix A projects the plane in the direction of the  eigenvector V2  on a line  determined by the eigenvector V1 if : 
             
    * The eigenvector V1 has its eigenvalue equal to  one and
    * The eigenvector V2 has its eigenvalue equal to zero and
    
    * If The vectors V1 and V2 are linearly independent
    
    In these examples, you have the matrix A that projects the plane in the direction of the  eigenvector V2  on a line  determined by the eigenvector V1. You must compute the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors to verify the properties of the matrix A.
