Show that there does not exist any 4 × 4 real symmetric orthogonal matrix with all diagonal elements zero

Question : Show that there does not exist any 4 × 4 real symmetric orthogonal matrix with all diagonal elements zeroSolution : Let A be a 4 × 4 real symmetric orthogonal matrix.\[=> A^T= A\]and\[ AA^T=A^TA=I\]from these two equations\[=>A^2=I\]\[=> (A-I)(A+I)=0\]\[.=>A=I…
