In Exercises 24-27, find ${comp}_{u} v, {proj}_{u} v$ and the component of v orthogonal to u.
$u = <2, 0, - 5>, v = <- 3, 7, - 1>$

The values are ${comp}_{u} v = \frac{- 1}{\sqrt{29}}, {proj}_{u} v = \frac{- 1}{29} <2, 0, - 5>$ and the component of v orthogonal to u is $<\frac{- 85}{29}, 7, \frac{- 3}{29}>$ .

Step 1. Given information.

The given vectors are:

$u = <2, 0, - 5> and v = <- 3, 7, - 1>$

Step 2. Find the component of the projection of v onto u.

${comp}_{u} v = \frac{u \cdot v}{||u||} u = <2, 0, - 5> and v = <- 3, 7, - 1> u \cdot v = 2 (- 3) + 0 (7) + (- 5) (- 1) = - 6 + 0 + 5 = - 1 ||u|| = \sqrt{2^{2} + 0^{2} + {(- 5)}^{2}} = \sqrt{4 + 0 + 25} = \sqrt{29}$

Then,

${comp}_{u} v = \frac{u \cdot v}{||u||} = \frac{- 1}{\sqrt{29}}$

Therefore, localid="1649675490199" ${comp}_{u} v = \frac{- 1}{\sqrt{29}}$ .

Step 3. Find the vector projection of v onto u.

${proj}_{u} v = \frac{u \cdot v}{{||u||}^{2}} u = \frac{- 1}{{(\sqrt{29})}^{2}} <2, 0, - 5> = \frac{- 1}{29} <2, 0, - 5>$

Therefore, the vector projection of v onto u is $\frac{- 1}{29} <2, 0, - 5>$ .

Step 4. Find the component of v orthogonal to u.

The component of v orthogonal to u is $v - {proj}_{u} v$ .

$v - {proj}_{u} v = <- 3, 7, - 1> - (\frac{- 1}{29}) <2, 0, - 5> = <- 3, 7, - 1> + \frac{1}{29} <2, 0, - 5> = <- 3 + \frac{2}{29}, 7 + 0, - 1, - \frac{5}{29}> = <\frac{- 85}{29}, 7, \frac{- 3}{29}>$

Therefore, the component of v orthogonal to u is $<\frac{- 85}{29}, 7, \frac{- 3}{29}>$ .
