**Diagonalizing a Matrix**

In this example, we are tasked with diagonalizing the given matrix:

\[
\begin{bmatrix}
-13 & -42 \\
5 & 16 
\end{bmatrix}
\]

To diagonalize the matrix, we need to find matrices \( P \) and \( D \) such that:

\[
A = PDP^{-1}
\]

**Matrices:**

1. **Matrix \( P \):**
   - This is the matrix of eigenvectors of the original matrix.
   - It is a 2x2 matrix shown here with placeholders for its components.

\[
P = 
\begin{bmatrix}
\text{[ ]} & \text{[ ]} \\
\text{[ ]} & \text{[ ]}
\end{bmatrix}
\]

2. **Matrix \( D \):**
   - This is the diagonal matrix containing the eigenvalues of the original matrix.
   - It is also a 2x2 matrix with placeholders for the eigenvalues.

\[
D =
\begin{bmatrix}
\text{[ ]} & 0 \\
0 & \text{[ ]}
\end{bmatrix}
\]

3. **Matrix \( P^{-1} \):**
   - This is the inverse of the matrix \( P \).
   - It is represented with placeholders for its components.

\[
P^{-1} =
\begin{bmatrix}
\text{[ ]} & \text{[ ]} \\
\text{[ ]} & \text{[ ]}
\end{bmatrix}
\]

**Explanation:**

To diagonalize the matrix:
- Calculate the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the original matrix.
- Construct the matrices \( P \) and \( D \) from these values.
- Verify the diagonalization by checking if \( PDP^{-1} \) reconstructs the original matrix.
