Proposition: Let w $in V$ so that V is a vector space over $mathbbR$ and $||w|| neq 0$. For every v in V there exists a unique $cin mathbbR$ so that $v-cw$ is perpendicular to w.
My Proof:
Existence: Assume $w in V$ and $||w|| neq 0$. Let $v in V$ be arbitrary. Seting c $in mathbbR$ to be $frac<v,w><w,w>$ we have $<v-cw,w>=<v-frac<v,w>w<w,w>,w>$ $=$ $<v,w>$ $-frac<v,w><w,w>$ $<w,w>$ $=$ $<v,w>(1-1)=0$
Uniqueness: Assume $<v-cw,w>=0$ $=$ $<v,w>-<cw,w>$ $=$ $<v,w>-c<w,w>=0$ $implies$ $c=frac<v,w><w,w>$.
Is the proof correct? How do I improve it? In particular i'm concerned with the uniqueness part.

I don't see a problem with the proof. Have you considered projection theorem since $ Bbb R$ is Banach and V convex?

In is not particulary well written, but it is correct. In the existence proof, after the third $=$ sign I would put $langle v,wrangle-langle v,wrangle=0$; it looks more natural to me.
In the uniqueness part, I would begin with “Assume that $langle v-cw,wrangle=0$. Then…”
