A = \begin{bmatrix} \sin\alpha & \cos\alpha \\ -\cos\alpha & \sin\alpha \end{bmatrix}

By interchanging columns and rows of the matrix A we get the transpose of A

A' = \begin{bmatrix} \sin\alpha & -\cos\alpha \\ \cos\alpha & \sin\alpha \end{bmatrix}

To prove: A'A =I

L.H.S :A'A

A'A = \begin{bmatrix} \sin\alpha & -\cos\alpha \\ \cos\alpha & \sin\alpha \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} \sin\alpha & \cos\alpha \\ -\cos\alpha & \sin\alpha \end{bmatrix}

A'A = \begin{bmatrix} \cos^{2}\alpha + \sin ^{2}\alpha & \sin\alpha \cos \alpha - \sin \alpha \ cos \alpha \\ \sin\alpha \cos \alpha - \sin \alpha \cos \alpha & \ sin^{2}\alpha +\cos^{2}\alpha \end{bmatrix}

A'A = \begin{bmatrix} 1& 0 \\ 0& 1 \end{bmatrix}=I=R.H.S
