Find allmatrices for whichis an eigenvector.
For a given eigenvalue, find a basis of the associated eigenspace. Use the geometric multiplicities of the eigenvalues to determine whether a matrix is diagonalizable. For each of the matrices A in Exercises 1 through 20, find all (real) eigenvalues. Then find a basis of each eigenspace, and diagonalize A, if you can. Do not use technology
