Show that the product is a symmetric matrix.
Let each of the following matrices represent an active transformation of vectors in (x,y)plane (axes fixed, vector rotated or reflected). As in Example 3, show that each matrix is orthogonal, find its determinant and find its rotation angle, or find the line of reflection.
Find AB, BA , A+B , A-B , , ,5.A,3,B . Observe that . Show that . Show that , but that . Show that and find n so that . Find similar results for . Remember that the point of doing these simple problems by hand is to learn how to manipulate determinants and matrices correctly. Check your answers by computer.

Show that ifA and Bare matrices which don't commute, then , but if they do commute then the relation holds. Hint: Write out several terms of the infinite series for , and and, do the multiplications carefully assuming that anddon't commute. Then see what happens if they do commute
