If A and B are arbitrary matrices, which of the matrices in Exercise 21 through 26 must be symmetric?

Leonardo da Vinci and the resolution of forces. Leonardo (1452–1519) asked himself how the weight of a body, supported by two strings of different length, is apportioned between the two strings.

Three forces are acting at the point D: the tensions and in the strings and the weight . Leonardo believed that

Was he right? (Source: Les Manuscripts de Léonard de Vinci, published by Ravaisson-Mollien, Paris, 1890.)
Hint: Resolveinto a horizontal and a vertical component; do the same for . Since the system is at rest, the equationholds. Express the ratios
and . In terms ofand , using trigonometric functions, and compare the results.
If A is an matrix such that role="math" localid="1659514225617" , then A must be an orthogonal matrix.
