If , what is matrix for any positive integer ?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C.

  1. Step 1: Matrix represents a 2D counter-clockwise rotation by angle . Step 2. Composing identical rotations of angle yields a single rotation of angle . Step 3. By mathematical induction and angle sum identities, . Answer: \begin{pmatrix} \cos(n\theta) & -\sin(n\theta) \\ \sin(n\theta) & \cos(n\theta) \end{pmatrix}. Why not the others: Standard rotation matrix power theorem.
