  1. 1 CONTENT SUMMARY: pg 1: @ introducing the 2nd most important problem in linear algebra; 2 frames of reference; desire to compare frames of reference; example using "Bob" and "Rachel" basis vectors;
  2. 2 pg 2: @ example of vector change of basis; going back and forth between "Bob's" and "Rachel's" systems;
  3. 3 pg 3: @ notation to facilitate change of basis conversation; ordered bases, coordinate vectors, change of basis matrix; change of basis matrices are inverse matrices;
  4. 4 pg 4: @ process to obtain change of basis matrix; examples to verify agreement to earlier results;
  5. 5 pg 5: @ how linear transformations appear when going from one frame of reference to another frame of reference; start with an example;
  6. 6 pg 6: @ example continue; the same linear transformation expressed in different frames of reference; the transformation is much more easily expressed in "Rachel's" system;
  7. 7 pg 7: @ Definition of similar matrices; Similar matrices represent the same linear transformation but with respect to w.r.t. different bases
