Question
If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}\cos\alpha&\sin\alpha\\-\sin\alpha&\cos\alpha\end{bmatrix},$ then verify that ATA = I2.

Answer

$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}\cos\alpha&\sin\alpha\\-\sin\alpha&\cos\alpha\end{bmatrix}$

$\therefore\ \text{A}'=\begin{bmatrix}\cos\alpha&-\sin\alpha\\\sin\alpha&\cos\alpha\end{bmatrix}$

$\text{A}'\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}\cos\alpha&-\sin\alpha\\\sin\alpha&\cos\alpha\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\cos\alpha&\sin\alpha\\-\sin\alpha&\cos\alpha\end{bmatrix}$

$\begin{bmatrix}(\cos\alpha)(\cos\alpha)+(-\sin\alpha)(-\sin\alpha)&(\cos\alpha)(\sin\alpha)+(-\sin\alpha)(\cos\alpha)\$\sin\alpha)(\cos\alpha)+(\cos\alpha)(-\sin\alpha)&(\sin\alpha)(\sin\alpha)+(\cos\alpha)(\cos\alpha)\end{bmatrix}$

$\begin{bmatrix}\cos^2\alpha+\sin^2\alpha&\sin\alpha\cos\alpha-\sin\alpha\cos\alpha\\\sin\alpha\cos\alpha-\sin\alpha\cos\alpha&\sin^2\alpha+\cos^2 \alpha\end{bmatrix}$

$=\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}=\text{I}$

Hence, we have verified that A'A = I
