Solution

Sum of two skew-symmetric matrices is always skew-symmetric matrix.

Explanation:

Let A and B be any two matrices

∴ For skew-symmetric matrices

A = –A'   ......(i)

And B = –B'   ......(ii)

Adding (i) and (ii) we get

A + B = –A' – B'

⇒ A + B = –(A' + B')

So A + B is skew-symmetric matrix.
