To determine if a matrix is orthogonal, we need to multiply the matrix by it's transpose, and see if we get the identity matrix. Since we get the identity matrix, then we know that is an orthogonal matrix.
How do you know if vectors are orthogonal?
Two vectors u,v are orthogonal if they are perpendicular, i.e., they form a right angle, or if the dot product they yield is zero. Hence, the dot product is used to validate whether the two vectors which are inclined next to each other are directed at an angle of 90° or not.
What is the condition of orthogonality?
In Euclidean space, two vectors are orthogonal if and only if their dot product is zero, i.e. they make an angle of 90° (π/2 radians), or one of the vectors is zero. Hence orthogonality of vectors is an extension of the concept of perpendicular vectors to spaces of any dimension.
