Lets take
B^T = ((I+A)^T)^{-1}(I-A)^T = (I-A)^{-1}(I+A)
this is because A is skew symmetric
Now lets do
B^TB = ((I+A)^T)^{-1}(I-A)^T = (I-A)^{-1}(I+A)(I-A)(I+A)^{-1}and
(I-A)(I+A) = (I+A)(I-A) ….... try this, putting in the above equation we get
BTB = I
Hence orthogonal

this is because AT=-A in case of skew syemmetric matrix right so why the first line is that very good
