“An $n×n$ matrix A is orthogonally diagonalizable if and only if A is a symmetric

matrix”

Refer Theorem 2.

The given statement “If A is orthogonally diagonalizable, then A is symmetric” is true.

Proof:

Consider A $n×n$ matrix.

The matrix A is orthogonally diagonalizable if

$A=PDPT=PDP−1$

Here, P is the orthogonal matrix such that $P−1=PT$ and D is the diagonal matrix.
