Abstract: In this paper. we give a decomposition depending on p(1≤p≤n-2) orthonormaldirections assigned for nonsingular linear transformation F on a n-dimension (n≥3)Euclidean space En, and then prove foal there exist q(q=n-p) quasi-Principaldirections.for F depending on the preceding p orthonormal directions. As applicance ofthe preceding result, we derive that there exist at least two orthonormal principaldirections of strain in arbitrary plane of body which is in homogeneous deformation,and strain energy density is.function of 5 real numbers under arbitrary quasi-principalbase.for the preceding nonsingular linear transformation.

Key words: nonsingular, linear transformation, quasi-principal directions, decomposition
