To solve the problem, we need to determine the nature of the matrix \( AB - BA \) where \( A \) and \( B \) are symmetric matrices of the same order. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the properties of symmetric matrices**: A matrix \( A \) is symmetric if \( A = A^T \), where \( A^T \) is the transpose of \( A \). Similarly, \( B \) is symmetric, so \( B = B^T \). 2. **Find the transpose of \( AB - BA \)**: ...
