Change of Basis

The video tutorial explains the concept of basis vectors and how to change from one basis to another in vector spaces, particularly in R2. It introduces the standard basis using unit vectors and explains the role of the transition matrix in changing bases. The tutorial also covers the use of inverse matrices to facilitate basis change and provides a practical example of changing basis using a transition matrix. Finally, it discusses how to relate nonstandard bases using the standard basis as a stepping stone.
