We denote $E_{n} = \mathcal{M}_{n,1}(\mathbb{R})$ equipped with the inner product $(X \mid Y) = X^{\top}Y$. A matrix $K \in \mathcal{M}_{n}(\mathbb{R})$ is called $F$-singular if there exists a non-zero $X \in F$ such that $\forall Z \in F, Z^{\top}KX = 0$. We assume $n \geqslant 3$. Let $F$ be a vector subspace of $E_{n}$ of dimension $n-2$. We consider $(N_{1}, N_{2})$ a basis of $F^{\perp}$ and we set $N = \begin{pmatrix} N_{1} & N_{2} \end{pmatrix} \in \mathcal{M}_{n,2}(\mathbb{R})$. Show that $A$ is $F$-singular if and only if there exist a non-zero element $X$ of $F$ and two real numbers $\lambda_{1}$, $\lambda_{2}$ such that $AX = \lambda_{1}N_{1} + \lambda_{2}N_{2}$.
