Let x and y be vectors in Rn and define

Let x and y be vectors in Rn and define
(a)

(a) Show that p Х z. Thus p is the vector projection of x onto y; that is, x = p + z, where p and z are orthogonal components of x, and p is a scalar multiple of y.
(b) If ||p|| = 6 and ||z|| = 8, determine the value of ||x||.
