To prove that if \( A \) is a skew-symmetric matrix, then \( A^2 \) is a symmetric matrix, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Definition of Skew-Symmetric Matrix A matrix \( A \) is called skew-symmetric if \( A^T = -A \). This means that the transpose of \( A \) is equal to the negative of \( A \). ### Step 2: Find the Transpose of \( A^2 \) We need to find the transpose of \( A^2 \): \[ ...
