Use the -dimensional space for this change of basis. With the columns of recording the new basis in the old one, bilinearity gives
(1)
Thus the matrices of the bilinear form satisfy
(2)
This is matrix congruence, rather than the similarity rule for an endomorphism: both arguments of the bilinear form change basis.
