Data From Exercise 28
(a) Prove that an orthogonal 2 Ã 2 matrix must have the form

where![-1/2 V3/2 - V3/2 -1/2] or [b -a](https://dsd5zvtm8ll6.cloudfront.net/si.question.images/images/question_images/1535/9/7/1/4765b8d1094841b31535953796144.jpg)
is a unit vector.
(b) Using part (a), show that every orthogonal 2 Ã 2 matrix is of the form

where 0 ¤ u ¤ 2Ï.
(c) Show that every orthogonal 2 Ã 2 matrix corresponds to either a rotation or a reflection in 2.
(d) Show that an orthogonal 2 Ã 2 matrix Q corresponds to a rotation in R2 if det Q = 1 and a reflection in R2 if det Q = -1.
