What is the difference between mapping into versus. Matrices withwhose columns are orthonormal, theyre perpendicular to each other, and theyre unit vectors, well, they dont have to be those three, let me do a final example over here, how about one at an angle like that and one at ninety degrees, that vector would be cos theta, sine theta, a unit vector, and this vector would be minus sine.
