By Problem 13, you know that the matrices in Problem 4 are a reducible representation of the 4’s group, that is they can all be diagonalized by the same unitary similarity transformation (in this case orthogonal since the matrices are symmetric). Demonstrate this directly by finding the matrix C and diagonalizing all 4 matrices.
