Linear transformation and it's matrix representation.



Hello,
I have question about linear transformation and it's matrix
representation. Let me make a simple example to make clear.

Let T:R2->R2 be a rotation by $ degree. If I choose the standard
ordered basis for R2 then I have theta rotation matrix A

A = [ cos($) -sin($) ; sin($) cos($) ]

Then it's clear AA*=A*A (here * is conjugate adjoint). So my matrix A
is normal. But I rwant to know the normality of T. I tried with
different basis and got the same result. Seems AA*=A*A independent of
choosing basis if T is rotation. How can I show rotation T is normal?
Is it related with normality of matrix representation.

.
