A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 5\\ 6 & 7 \end{bmatrix}

A' = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 6\\ 5 & 7 \end{bmatrix}

A - A'= \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 5\\ 6 & 7 \end{bmatrix}  - \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 6\\ 5 & 7 \end{bmatrix}

A - A'= \begin{bmatrix} 1-1 & 5-6\\ 6-5 & 7-7 \end{bmatrix}

A - A'= \begin{bmatrix}0 & -1\\ 1& 0 \end{bmatrix}

(A - A')'= \begin{bmatrix}0 & 1\\ -1& 0 \end{bmatrix}=-(A-A')

We have A-A'=-(A - A')'

Hence ,  (A - A') is a skew-symmetric matrix.
