Legendre's proof involving linearity independence












0












$begingroup$


Show that any polynomial of degree n is a linear combination of P0(x), P1(x), ..., Pn(x)



Actually I have no idea how to start with a proof involving "any". Can someone help??

    basically on applying gram schmidt orthogonalization process under given inner product on P(x) would give some scalar multiple of P0(x), P1(x), ..., Pn(x) implying that they are orthogonal hence linearly independent
