(the converse is also true).

For example, if and then the assignment and can be linearly extended from the linearly independent set of vectors to a linear map on . The unique linear extension is the map that sends to

Every (scalar-valued) linear functional defined on a vector subspace of a real or complex vector space has a linear extension to all of .Indeed, the Hahn-Banach dominated extension theorem
