20:Vector is a linear combination of and .
Recall that a real square matrix A is called skew symmetric if.
a. If A is skew symmetric, isskew symmetric as well? Or issymmetric?
b. If is skew symmetric, what can you say about the definiteness of ? What about the eigenvalues of ?
c. What can you say about the complex eigenvalues of a skew-symmetric matrix? Which skew-symmetric matrices are diagonalizable over ?
Compute the products in Exercises 16 through 19 using paper and pencil (if the products are defined).

Question:A linear system of the form is called homogeneous. Justify the following facts:
a.All homogeneous systems are consistent.
b.A homogeneous system with fewer equations than unknowns has infinitely many solutions.
c.If are solutions of the homogeneous system, then is a solution as well.
d.If is a solution of the homogeneous system andkis an arbitrary constant, then is a solution as well.
