1. For the linear map  : R3 → R such that
Â((x, y, z)) = x + y + z
3
it has a right inverse B̂ : R → R such that  ◦ B̂ = IR . If we take
x x x
B̂(x) = , ,
3 3 3
then  x x x  x x x
 ◦ B̂(x) = Â(B̂(x)) =  , , = + + = x = IR (x)
3 3 3 3 3 3
Hence B̂ here is a right inverse of Â.
The linear map  : R3 → R has no left inverse.
2. For the linear map  : R2 → R3 such that
Â((x, y)) = (x − y, x + y, 0)
has no right inverse.
The linear map  : R2 → R3 , it has a left inverse Ĉ : R3 → R2 such that Ĉ ◦  = IR2 . If we
take  
x+y y−x
Ĉ((x, y, z)) = ,
2 2
then
 
(x − y) + (x + y) (x + y) − (x − y)
Ĉ◦Â((x, y)) = Ĉ(Â((x, y))) = Ĉ((x−y, x+y, 0)) = , = (x, y) = IR2 ((x, y))
2 2
Hence Ĉ here is a left inverse of Â.
3. For the linear map  : R3 → R3 such that
Â((x, y, z)) = (x − y, y − z, z − x)
has no left and right inverse.
4. For the linear map  : R3 → R3 such that
Â((x, y, z)) = (x, 2y, 3z)
3 3
it has a right inverse B̂ : R → R such that  ◦ B̂ = IR3 . If we take
 y z
B̂((x, y, z)) = x, ,
2 3
then
 y z   y z
 ◦ B̂((x, y, z)) = Â(B̂((x, y, z))) =  x, , = x, 2 · , 3 · = (x, y, z) = IR3 ((x, y, z))
2 3 2 3
Hence B̂ here is a right inverse of Â.
The linear map  : R3 → R3 has a left inverse Ĉ : R3 → R3 such that Ĉ ◦  = IR3 . If we take
 y z
Ĉ((x, y, z)) = x, ,

then
 
2y 3z
Ĉ ◦ Â((x, y, z)) = Ĉ(Â((x, y, z))) = Ĉ((x, 2y, 3z)) = x, , = (x, y, z) = IR3 ((x, y, z))
2 3
Hence Ĉ here is a left inverse of Â.
