The set is considered a subspace because vectors of the form (x,0,−x) stay in the same form after addition or scalar multiplication. This set is the span of (1,0,−1), a line through the origin.
Conditions: The vectors are of the form (x,0,-x).; The operation is vector addition or scalar multiplication.

The lecturer states that the representation is unique because, in the context of a direct sum W⊕W⊥=R4, there is only one way to split a given vector into a part belonging to W and a part belonging to W⊥. No other pair of vectors from these subspaces can sum to the same original vector.
Conditions: The ambient space is R4.; W and W⊥ are the specific subspaces defined on the board.; The equation W⊕W⊥=R4 holds.
