Correlated features when doing Linear Regression : a geometrical approach

Goal of the document
This document aims to give a geometrical approach of what is happening when two features are correlated when applying linear regression/OLS. Indeed, we are investigating another way (formula) to compute the coefficient estimates which give us a new insight : we see directly that two highly correlated features improve the variance of the coefficient estimates associated.
Here is another way of seeing it, taking into account eigenvalues and SVD.
