Answer

True

Work Step by Step

If $x_1$ and $x_2$ are orthogonal, then applying the Gram-Schmidt Process $v_1=x_1\\ v_2=(x_1+x_2)-\frac{}{||v_1||^2}v_1\\ =x_1+x_2-\frac{}{||x_1||^2}x_1\\ =x_1+x_2-\frac{+}{||x_1||^2}x_1\\ =x_1+x_2-\frac{||x_1||^2}{||x_1||^2}x_1\\ =x_1+x_2-x_1\\ =x_1$ Hence, $\{v_1,v_2\}=\{x_1,x_2\}$ The statement is true.
