Step-by-Step Solution

Given Information
We have to show that if $P$ is an orthogonal $m \times m$ matrix, then $P A$ has the same singular values as $A$

Step-1: (a)
Consider the equation\[\begin{aligned} P A & = P \left( U \Sigma V ^ { T } \right) \\ & = ( P U ) \Sigma V ^ { T } \end{aligned}\]Since $P$ and $U$ are orthogonal, so $P U$ is also orthogonal.

Since $P U$ and $V$ are orthogonal and $\Sigma$ is a diagonal matrix, so $P A = ( P U ) \Sigma V ^ { T }$ is the singular value decomposition of $P A$ . Therefore, the diagonal entries of $\Sigma$ are the singular values of $P A$ .Hence,

The matrices $A$ and $P A$ have the same singular values.
