What condition defines a symmetric matrix?
Answer: A
Equality with the transpose means the entry in row i column j matches that in row j column i, so the matrix is a mirror image across the leading diagonal. Every real symmetric matrix has real eigenvalues and can be diagonalised by an orthogonal matrix, which is why the form matters so much in practice.
