 Solution

A Givens rotation acts as the identity except on coordinates $i,j$, where its block can be writtenThe block has orthonormal columns because ${\cos }^2\theta +{\sin }^2\theta =1$ and their inner product is zero, so $J^{T}J=I$. For $r=\sqrt{v_i^2+v_j^2}>0$, choose $\cos \theta =v_i/r$, $\sin \theta =v_j/r$. The new coordinates are $(r,0)$, eliminating the $j$th entry. If both entries are zero, the identity already works.

For the specified vector, one suitable matrix isIts rows are orthonormal, so it is orthogonal; in fact its determinant is one. The positive nonzero output component must be five because an orthogonal matrix preserves Euclidean norm.

The matrix is not unique. Left multiplication by any orthogonal matrix fixing the second coordinate vector preserves this output. For example arbitrary rotations of the first and third coordinates provide infinitely many alternatives.
