Hey, I've been trying to solve this problem it sounds simple but i don't know where to start:

If \phi_{1} and \phi_{2} are normalised, have the same eigenvalue and obey \int \phi_{1}*\phi_{2}d\tau = c find the linear combination that is normalised and orthogonal to \phi_{1}

Thanks

NB: * denotes a complex conjugate,
