Page 417 Number 4(a). Find the upper-triangular coefficient matrix of the quadratic form x2

1 − 2x2 2 + x2 3 + 6x2 4 − 2x1x4 + 6x2x4 − 8x1x3.

  • Solution. We take the coefficient of xixj where i ≤ j as uij. All uij = 0 for

i > j. So we have for the nonzero uij: u11 = 1, u22 = −2, u33 = 1, u44 = 6, u14 = −2, u24 = 6, u13 = −8. Hence U =     1 −8 −2 −2 6 1 6     .
