To prove that B is Linearly Independent, you have to assume that vi is any LINEAR COMBINATION of the other vectors, then vi dot vi can be proven to be equal to 0 by using scalar product distributivity and associativity and the fact that vi dot vj = 0 for j not equal to i.
This leads to the contradiction that vi = 0 vector, which proves that no vi is a linear combination of the other vectors in B. This is what means that B is a L.I. set.
Your proof that B is a linearly independent set is incorrect. You proved that no vector can be a scalar multiple times another of the vectors. But B could be a linearly dependent set even then. Take for example the set: (1, 0, 0) (0, 1, 0) and (1, 1, 0).
Here no vector is a multiple of the other, but (1, 1, 0) = (1, 0, 0) + (0, 1, 1) which means B is a L.D. set.
just preparing for my linear algebra exam tomorrow...:)

actually you don't need associativity lol. Only the fact that vi dot (cvj) = (cvi) dot vj
But otherwise your videos are pretty awesome!
