I have no idea how to solve this question.
Consider the vector space $mathbb R_2[x]$ with the inner product $langle cdot,cdotrangle$ given by $$langle p, qrangle = p(-1)q(-1) + p(0)q(0) + p(1)q(1).$$ (You need not prove that $langlecdot,cdotrangle$ is an inner product.)
Let $U$ be the subspace of $mathbb R_2[x]$ consisting of all polynomials of degree at most $1$, i.e. $U = mathbb R_1[x]$.
- Find the orthogonal complement of $U$.
- Find the polynomial in $U$ which is closest to $-3x^2 + x$.

Hint: what is the definition of the orthogonal complement of $X$, $X^perp$?
