1: Structured Description
Here is the rules of Structured Description.
Entities:
\(F\): \(\in \{\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{C}\}\), with the canonical field structure
\(V_1\): \(\in \{\text{ the normed } F \text{ vectors spaces }\}\)
\(V_2\): \(\in \{\text{ the normed } F \text{ vectors spaces }\}\)
\(f\): \(: V_1 \to V_2\), \(\in \{\text{ the orthogonal linear maps }\}\)
//
Statements:
\(f \in \{\text{ the motions }\}\)
//
2: Natural Language Description
For any \(F \in \{\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{C}\}\), with the canonical field structure, any normed \(F\) vectors spaces, \(V_1, V_2\), and any orthogonal linear map, \(f: V_1 \to V_2\), \(f\) is a motion.
3: Proof
Whole Strategy: Step 1: choose any elements, \(v, v' \in V_1\); Step 2: see that \(\Vert v - v' \Vert = \Vert f (v) - f (v') \Vert\).
Step 1:
Let us choose any elements, \(v, v' \in V_1\).
Step 2:
\(\Vert v - v' \Vert = \Vert f (v - v') \Vert = \Vert f (v) - f (v') \Vert\).
So, \(f\) is a motion.
