We need to find the nullity of linear transformation T.
Let (a, b) e ker T
Then, T(a, b) = (0, 0, 0)
Now using the definition of linear
(a- b, b - a, - a) = (0, 0, 0) transformation,
we get
Comparing the components of the coordinates, we get
a-b= 0
b-a= 0
-a= 0
Solving for a and b, we get
a= 0, b=0
Therefore, ker T = {(0, 0)}
Thus, dim(ker T) =0, i.e., Tisx
