Description:Added inverse of linear transformation content
# Definition of inverse of a linear transformationPut content here**Definition:** If \(T: V \to W\) is an invertible linear transformation, its *inverse* is the unique linear transformation \(T^{-1}: W \to V\) satisfying: \[T^{-1}(T(\mathbf{v})) = \mathbf{v} \quad \text{for all } \mathbf{v} \in V\] \[T(T^{-1}(\mathbf{w})) = \mathbf{w} \quad \text{for all } \mathbf{w} \in W\] ⏎ **Properties of the inverse:** - \(T^{-1}\) is also linear - \((T^{-1})^{-1} = T\) - If \(T\) and \(S\) are both invertible, then \((ST)^{-1} = T^{-1}S^{-1}\) - If \(T\) is represented by matrix \(A\), then \(T^{-1}\) is represented by \(A^{-1}\) ⏎ **Example:** If \(T(x,y) = (2x, 3y)\), then \(T^{-1}(u,v) = (u/2, v/3)\). # Parents * Terminology * Terminology
