$A^{-1}$ is symmetric,if it exists

(A) Given that $A$ is a symmetric matrix,we have $A^T = A$. If the inverse $A^{-1}$ exists,we use the property $(A^{-1})^T = (A^T)^{-1}$. Substituting $A^T = A$ into the equation,we get $(A^{-1})^T = (A)^{-1} = A^{-1}$. Since the transpose of $A^{-1}$ is equal to $A^{-1}$,it follows that $A^{-1}$ is a symmetric matrix,provided it exists.
