The document provides examples to determine if given sets with operations are vector spaces by checking if they satisfy the 10 axioms of a vector space. Set 1 of 2x2 non-singular matrices is not a vector space as it fails axioms 4 and 5. Set 2 of triples of real numbers is a vector space as it satisfies all axioms. Set 3 is not a vector space as it fails axiom 4.
