Let {e1,...,en} be a basis for a complex vector space X. Find a basis for X regarded as a real vector space. What is the dimension of X in either case?
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm really not sure where to begin with this question.
Are the ej's something like (i, 0, 0,...), (0,i,0,...)?
If so, could we take {ie1,...,ien} as the basis for X regarded as a real vector space?
Also, I think that the dimension in either case is n. Does anyone know if that is correct?
Thank you very much.
