has , whereas if but b is nonzero, then every point of the form
has , and if but a is nonzero, then every point of the form
has . Finally, in the degenerate case and , we have for every v in .
In each case, T fails to be one-to-one, so there can be no transformation from the plane to the real line that is both linear and
one-to-one.
Of course, even if , a linear transformation from V to W might not be one-to-one, as the zero
transformation shows.
