Are the following vectors linearly independent?
1. Since the vectors are not collinear, and thus they are linearly independent.
2. Consider the linear combination which is equivalent to and hence We conclude that the vectors are linear independent.
3. Since in 2-dimentinal space any three vectors are linearly dependent, we conclude that the vectors are linearly dependent.
4. Since we conclude that the vectors are not collinear, and hence they are linearly independent.
5. Since in 3-dimentinal space any four vectors are linearly dependent, we conclude that the vectors are linearly dependent.
