True.

This statement is true. Any vector v can be decomposed into two components: one parallel to another vector w and the other orthogonal (perpendicular) to w. The parallel component is found by projecting vector v onto vector w, while the orthogonal component is obtained by subtracting the parallel component from vector v.
