TUTORIAL 7: DIAGONALIZATION and LINEAR TRANSFORMATION
1. Using answers from the Tutorial 6, determine whether matrix 𝑨 is diagonalizable.
If yes, find the 𝑷 and 𝑫 such that 𝑫 = 𝑷−𝟏 𝑨𝑷. If not, state your reasons.
Moreover, if 𝑨 is diagonalizable use 𝑫 to obtain 𝑨𝟕 and determine whether 𝑨 is orthogonally
diagonalizable.
