Question 1:

Find the adjoint of each of the following matrices:

(i) -3524

(ii) abcd

(iii) cos αsin αsin αcos α

(iv) 1tan α/2-tan α/21

Verify that (adj A) A = |A| I = A (adj A) for the above matrices.

Answer:


Given below are the squares matrices. Here, we will interchange the diagonal elements and change the signs of
the off-diagonal elements.

If A is an invertible matrix, then which of the following is not true
(a) A2-1=A-12
(b) A-1=A-1
(c) AT-1=A-1T
(d) A0

Answer:

(a) A2-1=A-12

We have,  A-1=A-1, AT-1=A-1T and A0 all are the properties of the inverse of a matrix A

Question 2:

If A is an invertible matrix of order 3, then which of the following is not true

(c) If BA=CA, than BC, where B and C are square matrices of order 3
(d) AB-1=B-1 A-1, where Bbij3×3 and B0

Answer:

(c) If BA=CA, then BC where B and C are square matrices of order 3.

If A is an invertible matrix, then A-1 exists.

Now,
BA=CA
On multiplying both sides by A-1, we get
BAA-1=CAA-1

BI=CI     AA-1=I where I is the identity matrixB=C

(a) AB is non-singular

A and B are non-singular matrices of order n× n.A0  and   B0    ...1A and B are of the same order, so AB is defined and is of the same order. Thus,AB=AB     AB0         Using 1      Thus, AB is non-singular.

 A-1=adj AAA-1A=adj A

Thus, adj A = A A1 is correct.

(b) det(A1) = [det(A)]1

As we know,
A-1=1AA-1=A-1

Thus, det(A1) = [det(A)]1 is correct.

(c) (AB)1 = B1A1 

As we know,
By reversal law of inverse
(AB)1 = B1A1 

Thus, (AB)1 = B1A1 is correct.

(d) (A + B)1 = B1 + A1

A+B-1=1A+Badj(A+B)              1AadjA+1BadjB              A-1+B-1

Thus, (A + B)1 = B1 + A1 is incorrect.

Answer:

Given: A2=A
Now,
I-A3+A=I3-A3-3I2A+3IA2+A=I-AA2-3IA+3IA2+A  I3=I2=I=I-AA-3IA+3IA+A      A2=A=I-A2-3IA+3IA+A=I-A+A=I

Question 1:

If A is a unit matrix of order n, then A (adj A) = ___________________.

Answer:

As we know that, A(adj A) = |A|I.

But it is given that A is a unit matrix of order n
Therefore, A(adj A) = |I|I = (1)I = I

Hence, if A is a unit matrix of order n, then A (adj A) = I.

Multiplying both sides by A1, we get
⇒ A3A1I A1
⇒ A2(AA1) = I A1
⇒ A2(I) = A1
⇒ A2 = A1

Hence, if A is a non-singular square matrix such that A3 = I, then A1 = A2.

AB = 3I
Pre-Multiplying both sides by A1, we get
⇒ A1(AB) = A1(3I
(A1A)B = 3(A1I
⇒ (I)B = 3A1
⇒ B = 3A1
⇒ 13B = A1

Hence, if A and B are square matrices of the same order and AB = 3I, then A=  13B.

Question 27:

If A=235-2, write A-1 in terms of A.

Answer:

A=235-2=-190A is a non-singular matrix. Therefore, it is invertible.Let Cij be a cofactor of aij in A.The cofactors of element A are given byC11=-2C12=-5C21=-3C22=2adj A=-2-5-32T=-2-3-52 A-1=1Aadj A=2/193/195/19-2/19

A-1=119A

Question 29:

Use elementary column operation C2 → C2 + 2C1 in the following matrix equation :

2120=3120  10-11

Answer:

2120=3120  10-11

Applying C2 → C2 + 2C1, we get

2524=3120  12-1-1

Question 30:

In the following matrix equation use elementary operation R2 → R2 + R1 and the equation thus obtained:

2314 1   02-1=8-39-4

Answer:

2314 1   02-1=8-39-4

By applying elementary operation R2 → R2 + R1, we get

2337 1   02-1=8-317-7          (Every row operation is equivalent to left-multiplication by an elementary matrix.)

Question 31:

If A is a square matrix with A = 4 then find the value of A.(adj A).

Answer:

Given: 
A is a square matrix
A = 4


Now,
Aadj A=AIAadj A=AIAadj A=AnI, where n is the order of IAadj A=An×1Aadj A=4n              A=4


Hence, Aadj A=4n.
