Find a matrix B such that $B^5 = A$ [duplicate]

Find a matrix $B$ such that $B^3 = A$
4 answers
I am being asked to find a matrix $B$ where $B^5 = A$
$$A = begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 \ 3 & 1 end{bmatrix}$$
In the first part of the question I was asked to find the eigenvalues & eigenvectors for the matrix which I found successfully.
If someone could help me finish this then that would be great.

@Mason i got λ=4,λ=-2 for eigenvals. Corresponding to $$A = begin{bmatrix} 1 \ 1 end{bmatrix}$$ and $$A = begin{bmatrix} -1 \ 1 end{bmatrix}$$

HINT: If you have found the eigenvalues and eigenvectors, then you should easily be able to diagonalize this matrix as $A=PDP^{-1}$, where $D$ is diagonal. Then use the fact that $A^n=PD^n P^{-1}$, and the fact that the powers of a diagonal matrix are the matrices consisting of the powers of its entries.
$endgroup$

$begingroup$
Maybe, use $D$ instead of $B$ to avoid the confusion as the OP is asking to find $B$ such that $B^5 = A$. Also, this problem could be considered as a duplicate, I think.

@Frpzzd any chance you could expand on the latter part of that suggestion. I know how to do matrix diagonalisation but what do you mean by "Then use the fact that An=PDnP−1, and the fact that the powers of a diagonal matrix are the matrices consisting of the powers of its entries." Thanks

We can also use projector decomposition. The left and right eigenvectors are equal, because of the symmetry. So the projector decomposition is
$$A=lambda_1 frac{v_1 circ v_1}{v_1 cdot v_1}+lambda_2 frac{v_2 circ v_2}{v_2 cdot v_2}$$
And
$$f(A)=f(lambda_1) frac{v_1 circ v_1}{v_1 cdot v_1}+f(lambda_2) frac{v_2 circ v_2}{v_2 cdot v_2}$$
Where $(a circ b)_{ij}=a_i b_j$.
