Linear algebra and the geometry of quadratic equations Similarity
... Similarity transformations and orthogonal matrices First, some things to recall from linear algebra. Two square matrices A and B are similar if there is an invertible matrix S such that A = S −1 BS. This is equivalent to B = SAS −1 . The expression SAS −1 is called a similarity transformation of the ...
