Spectral Radius proof
$begingroup$
Let A be a symmetric matrix with positive Eigenvalues.Proof that ρ(Α^4)=(ρ(Α))^4 where ρ is the spectral radius.
How should i go about that?
I am kinda confused on how should i use the information i am given
matrices numerical-methods eigenvalues-eigenvectors

Are you aware (or, can you prove) that if $lambda$ is an eigenvalue of a matrix $A$, then $lambda^k$ is an eigenvalue of $A^k$ for all positive integers $k$?

Start with the definition of eigenvalue.

@GerryMyerson It is easy to verify that $lambda^{k}$ is an eigen value of $A^{k}$ if $lambda $ is an eigen value of $A$. But this is not enough to find the spectral radius.

The spectral radius is the largest absolute value of an eigenvalue, @Kavi. So I think what I've hinted at is all that's needed.

The spectral radius formula is $rho (A)=lim |A^{n}|^{1/n}$. From this $rho (A^{4})=lim |A^{4n}|^{1/n}=(lim |A^{4n}|^{1/4n})^{4}$ which is $rho (A) ^{4}$. See Gelfand Formula in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_radius
