What is Linear Algebra: Eigenvalues & SVD and how does Inquinion ground tutoring in your syllabus?
An eigenvalue lambda satisfies A*v = lambda*v for a non-zero eigenvector v, representing axes along which a linear transformation acts merely by scaling. Inquinion provides intuitive geometric visualizers and step-by-step diagonalization proofs.

Vector Spaces & Linear Maps
- •Null space, Column space, Rank-Nullity theorem
- •Matrix transformations as geometric distortions
- •Change of basis
Eigendecomposition
- •Characteristic equation det(A - lambda*I) = 0

- •Singular Value Decomposition A = U*Sigma*V^T
Singular Value Decomposition Architecture
SVD factors any real matrix into rotation (V^T), scaling by singular values (Sigma), and a second rotation (U), forming the mathematical foundation of machine learning, PCA, and compression.
High-Yield Practice Questions & Proofs
- Derive SVD of a 2x3 matrix from first principles.
- Prove that symmetric matrices always have orthogonal eigenvectors.
