If $Ax=\lambda x$, then $M=A-\lambda I$ is a normal matrix by part (ii), and $Mx=0$. Part (i), applied to $M$, yields $\Vert M^{†}x\Vert =\Vert Mx\Vert =0$. ThusThe nonzero vector $x$ is consequently an eigenvector of the conjugate transpose with eigenvalue $\overline{\lambda }$. This adjoint eigenvector identity for a normal matrix will also determine the special spectral restrictions below.

The adjoint eigenvector identity for a normal matrix gives $A^{†}{x}_{\lambda }=\overline{\lambda }{x}_{\lambda }$. HenceAs $\mu \ne \lambda$, $x_{\lambda }^{†}{x}_{\mu }=0$. Thus eigenvectors in distinct eigenspaces of a normal matrix are orthogonal in the complex inner product.
