Is $(\mathbf{V} \cap \mathbf{W})^{\bot}=(\mathbf{V}^{\bot} \cap \mathbf{W}^{\bot})$? I tried element-chasing, but I am getting confused when trying to determine mutual containment.
Is $(\mathbf{V} \cap \mathbf{W})^{\bot}=(\mathbf{V}^{\bot} \cap \mathbf{W}^{\bot})$?

0By the way, $\LaTeX$'s way to say 'perpendicular' is `\perp` (which gives a $\perp$) and not `\bot` (which results in a $\bot$) – 2011-02-21

0No. You should have union on the right hand side – 2014-04-23
