Question
A change of variable, \( x = Py \), is made to transform the original quadratic form into one with no cross product. The new quadratic form is given below.

\[ Q(Py) = 11y_1^2 + 6y_2^2 \]

If the eigenvectors of the original matrix are as follows:

\[ v_1 = \begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ 2 \end{bmatrix} \quad v_2 = \begin{bmatrix} -2 \\ 1 \end{bmatrix} \]

Find the matrices \( P \) and \( D \) such that \( A = PDP^T \).

\[ D = \begin{bmatrix} \phantom{-} \quad & \phantom{-} \quad \\ \phantom{-} \quad & \phantom{-} \quad \end{bmatrix} \]

\[ P = \begin{bmatrix} \phantom{-} \quad & \phantom{-} \quad \\ \phantom{-} \quad & \phantom{-} \quad \end{bmatrix} \]
