Let Q be an orthogonal 2 2 matrix and let x and y be vectors in 2 . If u is the angle

Chapter 5, Problem 5.1.27

(choose chapter or problem)

Let Q be an orthogonal 2 2 matrix and let x and y be vectors in 2 . If u is the angle between x and y, prove that the angle between Qx and Qy is also u. (This proves that the linear transformations defined by orthogonal matrices are angle-preserving in 2 , a fact that is true in general.) 28
