Suppose U is a finite-dimensional real vector space and T = L(U). Prove that U has a basis consisting of eigenvectors of T if and only if there is an inner product on U that makes 7' into a self-adjoint operator. Suppose U is a finite-dimensional real vector space and T = L(U). Prove that U has a basis consisting of eigenvectors of T if and only if there is an inner product on U that makes 7' into a self-adjoint operator.
