Use partitioned matrices to prove by induction that the product of two lower triangular matrices is also lower triangular. [Hint: A (k + 1) × (k + 1) matrix A1 can be written in the form below, where a is a scalar, v is in ℝk, and A is a k × k lower triangular matrix. See the Study Guide for help with induction.]
