Prove that the symmetry and projection with respect to the [math]Ox[/math] axis rotated by an angle [math]t/2\in\mathbb R[/math] are given by the matrices
[[math]]
S_t=\begin{pmatrix}\cos t&\sin t\\ \sin t&-\cos t\end{pmatrix}
[[/math]]
[[math]]
P_t=\frac{1}{2}\begin{pmatrix}1+\cos t&\sin t\\ \sin t&1-\cos t\end{pmatrix}
[[/math]]
and then diagonalize these matrices, and if possible without computations.
