### Exercise 3.1

1. In the matrix $\mathbf{A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 5 & 19 & -7 \\ 35 & -2 & \dfrac{5}{2} & 12 \\ \sqrt{3} & 1 & -5 & 17 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$, write

i. The order of the matrix.

Ans: The order of a matrix is $m\times n$ where $m$ is the number of rows and $n$ is the number of columns. Therefore, here the order is $3\times 4$.

ii. The number of elements.

Ans: Since the order of the given matrix is $3\times 4$ therefore, the number of elements in it is $3\times 4=12$.

iii. Write the elements $\mathbf{{{a}_{13}},{{a}_{21}},{{a}_{33}},{{a}_{24}},{{a}_{23}}}$

Ans: The elements are given as ${{a}_{mn}}$ . Therefore, here ${{a}_{13}}=19$ , ${{a}_{21}}=35$ , ${{a}_{33}}=-5$ , ${{a}_{24}}=12$ , ${{a}_{23}}=\dfrac{5}{2}$.

2. If a matrix has $24$ elements, what are the possible order it can have? What if it has $13$ elements?

Ans: The order of a matrix is $m\times n$ where $m$ is the number of rows and $n$ is the number of columns. To find the possible orders of a matrix, we have to find all the ordered pairs of natural numbers whose product is $24$ .

$\therefore \left( 1\times 24 \right),\left( 24\times 1 \right),\left( 2\times 12 \right),\left( 12\times 2 \right),\left( 3\times 8 \right),\left( 8\times 3 \right),\left( 4\times 6 \right),\left( 6\times 4 \right)$ are all the possible ordered pairs here.

If the matrix had $13$ elements, then the ordered pairs would be $\left( 1\times 13 \right)$ and $\left( 13\times 1 \right)$.

3. If a matrix has $18$ elements, what are the possible orders it can have? What if it has $5$ elements?

Ans: The order of a matrix is $m\times n$ where $m$ is the number of rows and $n$ is the number of columns. To find the possible orders of a matrix, we have to find all the ordered pairs of natural numbers whose product is $18$ .

$\therefore \left( 1\times 18 \right),\left( 18\times 1 \right),\left( 2\times 9 \right),\left( 9\times 2 \right),\left( 3\times 6 \right),\left( 6\times 3 \right)$ are all the possible ordered pairs here.

If the matrix had $5$ elements, then the ordered pairs would be $\left( 1\times 5 \right)$ and $\left( 5\times 1 \right)$.

4. Construct a $3\times 4$ matrix, whose elements are given by

i. $\mathbf{{{a}_{ij}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3i+j \right|}$

Ans: Given that ${{a}_{ij}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3i+j \right|$ ,

$\therefore {{a}_{11}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 1+1 \right|=1$

${{a}_{21}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 2+1 \right|=\dfrac{5}{2}$

${{a}_{31}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 3+1 \right|=4$

${{a}_{12}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 1+2 \right|=\dfrac{1}{2}$

${{a}_{22}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 2+2 \right|=2$

${{a}_{32}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 3+2 \right|=\dfrac{7}{2}$

${{a}_{13}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 1+3 \right|=0$

${{a}_{23}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 2+3 \right|=\dfrac{3}{2}$

${{a}_{33}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 3+3 \right|=3$

${{a}_{14}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 1+4 \right|=\dfrac{1}{2}$

${{a}_{24}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 2+4 \right|=1$

${{a}_{34}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\left| -3\times 3+4 \right|=\dfrac{5}{2}$

Thus, the required matrix is $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & \dfrac{1}{2} & 0 & \dfrac{1}{2} \\ \dfrac{5}{2} & 2 & \dfrac{3}{2} & 1 \\ 4 & \dfrac{7}{2} & 3 & \dfrac{5}{2} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$.

ii. $\mathbf{{{a}_{ij}}=2i-j}$

Ans: A $3\times 4$ matrix is given by $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} {{a}_{11}} & {{a}_{12}} & {{a}_{13}} & {{a}_{14}} \\ {{a}_{21}} & {{a}_{22}} & {{a}_{23}} & {{a}_{24}} \\ {{a}_{31}} & {{a}_{32}} & {{a}_{33}} & {{a}_{34}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Given that ${{a}_{ij}}=2i-j$ ,

$\therefore {{a}_{11}}=2\times 1-1=1$

${{a}_{21}}=2\times 2-1=3$

${{a}_{31}}=2\times 3-1=5$

${{a}_{12}}=2\times 1-2=0$

${{a}_{22}}=2\times 2-2=4$

${{a}_{32}}=2\times 3-2=4$

${{a}_{13}}=2\times 1-3=-1$

${{a}_{23}}=2\times 2-3=1$

${{a}_{33}}=2\times 3-3=3$

${{a}_{14}}=2\times 1-4=-2$

${{a}_{24}}=2\times 2-4=0$

${{a}_{34}}=2\times 3-4=2$

Thus, the required matrix is $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 & -1 & -2 \\ 3 & 2 & 1 & 0 \\ 5 & 4 & 3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$.

5. Find the value of $x,y,z$ from the following equation:

i. $\mathbf{\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 & 3 \\ x & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} y & z \\ 1 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$

Ans: Given $\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 & 3 \\ x & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} y & z \\ 1 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Comparing the corresponding elements we get,

$x=1,y=4,z=3$

ii. $\mathbf{\left[ \begin{matrix} x+y & 2 \\ 5+z & xy \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 6 & 2 \\ 5 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$

Ans: Given $\left[ \begin{matrix} x+y & 2 \\ 5+z & xy \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 6 & 2 \\ 5 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Comparing the corresponding elements we get,

$x+y=6,xy=8,5+z=5$

Now, $\because 5+z=5$

$\Rightarrow z=0$

We know that, ${{\left( x-y \right)}^{2}}={{\left( x+y \right)}^{2}}-4xy$

$\Rightarrow {{\left( x-y \right)}^{2}}=36-32$

$\Rightarrow \left( x-y \right)=\pm 2$

When $\left( x-y \right)=2$ and $\left( x+y \right)=6$,

We get $x=4,y=2$

When $\left( x-y \right)=-2$ and $\left( x+y \right)=6$,

We get $x=2,y=4$

$\therefore x=4,y=2,z=0$ or $\therefore x=2,y=4,z=0$

iii. $\mathbf{\left[ \begin{matrix} x+y+z \\ x+z \\ y+z \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 9 \\ 5 \\ 7 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$

Ans: Given $\left[ \begin{matrix} x+y+z \\ x+z \\ y+z \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 9 \\ 5 \\ 7 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Comparing the corresponding elements we get,

$x+y+z=9$                      …(1)

$x+z=5$                              …(2)

$y+z=7$                              …(3)

From equation (1) and (2),

$y+5=9$

$\Rightarrow y=4$

From equation (3) we have,

$4+z=7$

$\Rightarrow z=3$

$x+z=5$

$\Rightarrow x=2$

$\therefore x=2,y=4,z=3$

6. Find the value of $\mathbf{a,b,c,d}$ from the equation:

$\mathbf{\left[ \begin{matrix} a-b & 2a+c \\ 2a-b & 3c+d \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} -1 & 5 \\ 0 & 13 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$

Ans: Given $\left[ \begin{matrix} a-b & 2a+c \\ 2a-b & 3c+d \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} -1 & 5 \\ 0 & 13 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Comparing the corresponding elements we get,

$a-b=-1$                              …(1)

$2a-b=0$                              …(2)

$2a+c=5$                              …(3)

$3c+d=13$                                        …(4)

From equation (2),

$b=2a$

From equation (1),

$a-2a=-1$

$\Rightarrow a=1$

$\Rightarrow b=2$

From equation (3),

$2\times 1+c=5$

$\Rightarrow c=3$

From equation (4),

$3\times 3+d=13$

$\Rightarrow d=4$

$\therefore a=1,b=2,c=3,d=4$

7. $\mathbf{A={{\left[ {{a}_{y}} \right]}_{m\times n}}}$ is a square matrix, if

1. m<n

2. m>n

3. m=n

4. None of these

Ans: A given matrix is said to be a square matrix if the number of rows is equal to the number of columns.

$\therefore A={{\left[ {{a}_{y}} \right]}_{m\times n}}$ is a square matrix if, $m=n$.

Thus, option (C) is correct.

8. Which of the given values of $x$ and $y$ make the following pair of matrices equal $\mathbf{\left[ \begin{matrix} 3x+7 & 5 \\ y+1 & 2-3x \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & y-2 \\ 8 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$

1. $\mathbf{x=\dfrac{-1}{3},y=7}$

2. Not possible to find

3. $\mathbf{y=7,x=\dfrac{-2}{3}}$

4. $\mathbf{x=\dfrac{-1}{3},y=\dfrac{-2}{3}}$

Ans: Given $\left[ \begin{matrix} 3x+7 & 5 \\ y+1 & 2-3x \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & y-2 \\ 8 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Comparing the corresponding elements we get,

$3x+7=0$

$\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{7}{3}$

$y-2=5$

$\Rightarrow y=7$

$y+1=8$

$\Rightarrow y=7$

$2-3x=4$

$\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{2}{3}$

Since we get two different values of $x$ ,which is not possible. It is not possible to find the values of $x$ and $y$ for which the given matrices are equal.

Thus, the correct option is (B).

9. The number of all possible matrices of order $\mathbf{3\times 3}$ with each entry $0$ or $1$ is:

1. $\mathbf{27}$

2. $\mathbf{18}$

3. $\mathbf{81}$

4. $\mathbf{512}$

Ans: Given a matrix of the order $3\times 3$ has nine elements and each of these elements can be either $0$ or $1$ .

Now, each of the nine elements can be filled in two possible ways.

Therefore, the required number of possible matrices is ${{2}^{9}}=512$.

$\therefore A+B=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 4 \\ 3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ -2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow A+B=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2+1 & 4+3 \\ 3-2 & 2+5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow A+B=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 7 \\ 1 & 7 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

ii. $\mathbf{A-B}$

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 4 \\ 3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right],B=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ -2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore A-B=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 4 \\ 3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ -2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow A-B=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2-1 & 4-3 \\ 3+2 & 2-5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 3A-C=\left[ \begin{matrix} 6 & 12 \\ 9 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} -2 & 5 \\ 3 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 3A-C=\left[ \begin{matrix} 6+2 & 12-5 \\ 9-3 & 6-4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 3A-C=\left[ \begin{matrix} 8 & 7 \\ 6 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

iv. $\mathbf{AB}$

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 4 \\ 3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right],B=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ -2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore AB=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 4 \\ 3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ -2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow AB=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2\left( 1 \right)+4\left( -2 \right) & 2\left( 3 \right)+4\left( 5 \right) \\ 3\left( 1 \right)+2\left( -2 \right) & 3\left( 3 \right)+2\left( 5 \right) \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow AB=\left[ \begin{matrix} -6 & 26 \\ -1 & 19 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

v. $\mathbf{BA}$

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 4 \\ 3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right],B=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ -2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore BA=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ -2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 4 \\ 3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow BA=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1\left( 2 \right)+3\left( 3 \right) & 1\left( 4 \right)+3\left( 2 \right) \\ -2\left( 2 \right)+5\left( 3 \right) & -2\left( 4 \right)+5\left( 2 \right) \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$X-Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$   …(2)

Adding equations (1) and (2), we get,

$2X=\left[ \begin{matrix} 7 & 0 \\ 2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 2X=\left[ \begin{matrix} 10 & 0 \\ 2 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow X=\dfrac{1}{2}\left[ \begin{matrix} 10 & 0 \\ 2 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore X=\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 0 \\ 1 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, since $X+Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 7 & 0 \\ 2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 0 \\ 1 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 7 & 0 \\ 2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 7 & 0 \\ 2 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 0 \\ 1 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$3X+2Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & -2 \\ -1 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$                            …(2)

Multiplying equation (1) with two we get,

$2\left( 2X+3Y \right)=2\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left( 4X+6Y \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 & 6 \\ 8 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$                      …(3)

Multiplying equation (2) with three we get,

$3\left( 3X+2Y \right)=3\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & -2 \\ -1 & 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left( 9X+6Y \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} 6 & -6 \\ -3 & 15 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$                 …(4)

From equation (3) and (4),

$\left( 4X+6Y \right)-\left( 9X+6Y \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 & 6 \\ 8 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} 6 & -6 \\ -3 & 15 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow -5X=\left[ \begin{matrix} -2 & 12 \\ 11 & -15 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow X=\dfrac{-1}{5}\left[ \begin{matrix} -2 & 12 \\ 11 & -15 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore X=\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{2}{5} & \dfrac{-12}{5} \\ \dfrac{-11}{5} & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, since $2X+3Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore 2\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{2}{5} & \dfrac{-12}{5} \\ \dfrac{-11}{5} & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+3Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{4}{5} & \dfrac{-24}{5} \\ \dfrac{-22}{5} & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+3Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 3Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{4}{5} & \dfrac{-24}{5} \\ \dfrac{-22}{5} & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 3Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{6}{5} & \dfrac{39}{5} \\ \dfrac{42}{5} & -6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{2}{5} & \dfrac{13}{5} \\ \dfrac{14}{5} & -2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore X=\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{2}{5} & \dfrac{-12}{5} \\ \dfrac{-11}{5} & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right],Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{2}{5} & \dfrac{13}{5} \\ \dfrac{14}{5} & -2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Ans: Given $Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 2 \\ 1 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

And $2X+Y=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ -3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 2X+\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 2 \\ 1 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ -3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 2X=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ -3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 2 \\ 1 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 2X=\left[ \begin{matrix} -2 & -2 \\ -4 & -2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow X=\dfrac{1}{2}\left[ \begin{matrix} -2 & -2 \\ -4 & -2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore X=\left[ \begin{matrix} -1 & -1 \\ -2 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

9. Find $X$ and $Y$ ,if $\mathbf{2\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ 0 & x \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} y & 0 \\ 1 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 6 \\ 1 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$

Ans: Given: $2\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 3 \\ 0 & x \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} y & 0 \\ 1 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 6 \\ 1 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 6 \\ 0 & 2x \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} y & 0 \\ 1 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 6 \\ 1 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 2+y & 6+0 \\ 0+1 & 2x+2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 6 \\ 1 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 2+y & 6 \\ 1 & 2x+2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & 6 \\ 1 & 8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Comparing the corresponding elements of these two matrices, we get:

$2+y=5$

$\Rightarrow y=3$

$2x+2=8$

$\Rightarrow x=3$

$\therefore x=3,y=3$

10. Solve the equation for $X,Y,Z$ and $t$ if $\mathbf{2\left[ \begin{matrix} x & z \\ y & t \\ \end{matrix} \right]+3\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & -1 \\ 0 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=3\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 5 \\ 4 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$

Ans: Given: $2\left[ \begin{matrix} x & z \\ y & t \\ \end{matrix} \right]+3\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & -1 \\ 0 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=3\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 5 \\ 4 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 2x & 2z \\ 2y & 2t \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & -3 \\ 0 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 9 & 15 \\ 12 & 18 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 2x+3 & 2z-3 \\ 2y & 2t+6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 9 & 15 \\ 12 & 18 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Equating the corresponding elements of these two matrices, we get:

$2x+3=9$

$\Rightarrow x=3$

$2y=12$

$\Rightarrow y=6$

$2z-3=15$

$\Rightarrow z=9$

$2t+6=18$

$\Rightarrow t=6$

$\therefore x=3,y=6,z=9,t=6$

11. If $\mathbf{x\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 \\ 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+y\left[ \begin{matrix} -1 \\ 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 10 \\ 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]}$ ,find values of $x$ and $y$ .

Ans: Given: $x\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 \\ 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+y\left[ \begin{matrix} -1 \\ 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 10 \\ 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 2x \\ 3x \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} -y \\ y \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 10 \\ 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 2x-y \\ 3x+y \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 10 \\ 5 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Equating the corresponding elements of these two matrices, we get:

$2x-y=10$ and

$3x+y=5$

Adding these two equations, we get:

$5x=15$

$\Rightarrow x=3$

Now, since $3x+y=5$

$\Rightarrow y=5-3x$

$\Rightarrow y=5-9$

$\Rightarrow y=-4$

Ans: Given: $3\left[ \begin{matrix} x & y \\ z & w \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} x & 6 \\ -1 & 2w \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 & x+y \\ z+w & 2w+3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Equating the corresponding elements of these two matrices, we get:

$3x=x+4$

$\Rightarrow x=2$

$3y=6+x+y$

$\Rightarrow y=4$

$3w=2w+3$

$\Rightarrow w=3$

$3z=-1+z+w$

$\Rightarrow z=1$

Ans: Here, $F\left( x \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} \cos x & -\sin x & 0 \\ \sin x & \cos x & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$F\left( y \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} \cos y & -\sin y & 0 \\ \sin y & \cos y & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow F\left( x \right)F\left( y \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} \cos \left( x+y \right) & -\sin \left( x+y \right) & 0 \\ \sin \left( x+y \right) & \cos \left( x+y \right) & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$                            …(1)

And $F\left( x+y \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} \cos \left( x+y \right) & -\sin \left( x+y \right) & 0 \\ \sin \left( x+y \right) & \cos \left( x+y \right) & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$                               …(2)

19. A trust fund has Rs $30,000$ that must be invested in two different types of bonds. The first bond pays $5%$ interest per year, and the second bond pays $7%$ interest per year. Using matrix multiplication, determine how to divide Rs $30,000$ among the two types of bonds. If the trust fund must obtain an annual total interest of:

i. Rs $\mathbf{1,800}$

Ans: Let Rs $x$ be invested in the first round.

Then, the sum of money invested in the second bond pays Rs $\left( 30000-x \right)$

It is given that the first bond pays $5%$ interest per year, and the second bond pays $7%$ interest per year.

We know that,

Simple interest for one year is $\dfrac{principle\times rate}{100}$ .

Therefore, in order to obtain an annual total interest of Rs $1,800$ ,

$\left[ \begin{matrix} x & \left( 30000-x \right) \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{5}{100} \\ \dfrac{7}{100} \\ \end{matrix} \right]=1800$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{5x}{100}+\dfrac{7\left( 30000-x \right)}{100}=1800$

$\Rightarrow 210000-2x=180000$

$\Rightarrow x=15000$

Thus, in order to obtain an annual total interest of Rs $1,800$ , the trust fund should invest Rs $15000$ in the first bond and the remaining Rs $15000$ in the second bond.

ii. Rs $\mathbf{2,000}$

Ans: Let Rs $x$ be invested in the first round.

Then, the sum of money invested in the second bond pays Rs $\left( 30000-x \right)$

It is given that the first bond pays $5%$ interest per year, and the second bond pays $7%$ interest per year.

We know that,

Simple interest for one year is $\dfrac{principle\times rate}{100}$ .

Therefore, in order to obtain an annual total interest of Rs $2,000$ ,

$\left[ \begin{matrix} x & \left( 30000-x \right) \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{5}{100} \\ \dfrac{7}{100} \\ \end{matrix} \right]=2000$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{5x}{100}+\dfrac{7\left( 30000-x \right)}{100}=2000$

$\Rightarrow 210000-2x=200000$

$\Rightarrow x=5000$

Thus, in order to obtain an annual total interest of Rs $2,000$ , the trust fund should invest Rs $5000$ in the first bond and the remaining Rs $25000$ in the second bond.

$12\left[ \begin{matrix} 10 & 8 & 10 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 80 \\ 60 \\ 40 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 12\left[ 10\times 80+8\times 60+10\times 40 \right]$

$\Rightarrow 12\left[ 1680 \right]$

$\Rightarrow 20160$

Therefore, the bookshop will receive Rs $20160$ from the sale.

21. Assume $X,Y,Z,W$ and $P$ are the matrices of order $\mathbf{2\times n,3\times k,2\times p,n\times 3}$ and $\mathbf{p\times k}$ respectively. The restriction on $\mathbf{n,k,p}$ so that $\mathbf{PY+WY}$ will be defined are:

1. $\mathbf{k=3,p=n}$

2. $\mathbf{k}$ is arbitrary, $\mathbf{p=2}$

3. $\mathbf{p}$ is arbitrary, $\mathbf{k=3}$

4. $\mathbf{k=2,p=3}$

Ans: Matrices $P$ and $Y$ are of the orders $p\times k$ and $3\times k$ respectively.

Therefore, the matrix $PY$ will be defined if $k=3$ .

Also, $PY$ will be of order $p\times k$ .

Since the number of columns in matrix $W$ is equal to the number of rows in matrix $Y$ .

Therefore, matrix $WY$ is well-defined and is of the order $n\times k$ .

Moreover, Matrices $PY$ and $WY$ can be added only when their orders are the same.

But $PY$ is of the order $p\times k$ and $WY$ is of the order $n\times k$ .

Therefore, we must have $p=n$ .

$\therefore p=n,k=3$ are the restrictions on $n,k,p$ so that $PY+WY$ will be defined.

Thus, option (A) is correct.

22. Assume $\mathbf{X,Y,Z,W}$ and $\mathbf{P}$ are matrices of order $\mathbf{2\times n,3\times k,2\times p,n\times 3}$ and $\mathbf{p\times k}$ respectively. If $\mathbf{p=n}$ , then the order of the matrix $\mathbf{7X-5Z}$ is:

1. $\mathbf{p\times 2}$

2. $\mathbf{2\times n}$

3. $\mathbf{n\times 3}$

4. $\mathbf{p\times n}$

Ans: Matrix $X$ is of the order $2\times n$ .

Thus, matrix $7X$ is also of the same order.

Since, $p=n$

Matrix $Z$ is of the order $2\times p$ or $2\times n$ .

Thus, matrix $5Z$ is also of the same order.

Since, both the matrices $7X$ and $5Z$ are of the same order $2\times n$.

Therefore, $7X-5Z$ is well defined and is of the order $2\times n$ .

Thus, option (B) is correct.

1. Find the transpose of each of the following matrices:

i. $\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 \\ \dfrac{1}{2} \\ -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Ans: The transpose of a matrix is obtained by changing its rows into columns and its columns into rows.

Thus, if $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 \\ \dfrac{1}{2} \\ -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , then ${{A}^{T}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 5 & \dfrac{1}{2} & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

ii. $\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & -1 \\ 2 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Ans: The transpose of a matrix is obtained by changing its rows into columns and its columns into rows.

Thus, if $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & -1 \\ 2 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , then ${{A}^{T}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 \\ -1 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow A+A'=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore \dfrac{1}{2}\left( A+A' \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, $A-A'=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & a & b \\ -a & 0 & c \\ -b & -c & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & -a & -b \\ a & 0 & -c \\ b & c & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, $A+A'=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 5 \\ 1 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 1 \\ 5 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow A+A'=\left[ \begin{matrix} 6 & 6 \\ 6 & -2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Let $P=\dfrac{1}{2}\left( A+A' \right)$

$\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{1}{2}\left[ \begin{matrix} 6 & 6 \\ 6 & -2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow P=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 3 \\ 3 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, $P'=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 3 \\ 3 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Here, $P=P'$

$\therefore P=\dfrac{1}{2}\left( A+A' \right)$ is a symmetric matrix.

Now, $A-A'=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 5 \\ 1 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 1 \\ 5 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow A-A'=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 4 \\ -4 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Let $Q=\dfrac{1}{2}\left( A-A' \right)$

$\Rightarrow Q=\dfrac{1}{2}\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 4 \\ -4 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow Q=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 2 \\ -2 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, $Q'=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 2 \\ -2 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Here, $Q=-Q'$

$\therefore Q=\dfrac{1}{2}\left( A-A' \right)$ is a skew symmetric matrix.

11. If $A,B$ are symmetric matrices of same order, then $AB-BA$ is a:

1. Skew symmetric matrix

2. Symmetric matrix

3. Zero matrix

4. Identity matrix

Ans: $A$ and $B$ are symmetric matrix, therefore, we have:

$A'=A$ and $B'=B$                                                    …(1)

Here, $\left( AB-BA \right)'=\left( AB \right)'-\left( BA \right)'$

$\Rightarrow \left( AB-BA \right)'=B'A'-A'B'$

From (1),

$\Rightarrow \left( AB-BA \right)'=BA-AB$

$\Rightarrow \left( AB-BA \right)'=-\left( AB-BA \right)$                           …(2)

From equation (2),

$AB-BA$ is a skew symmetric matrix.

12. If $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} \cos \alpha & -\sin \alpha \\ \sin \alpha & \cos \alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , then $\mathbf{A+A'=I}$ , if the value of $\mathbf{\alpha}$ is

1. $\dfrac{\pi }{6}$

2. $\dfrac{\pi }{3}$

3. $n$

4. $\dfrac{3\pi }{2}$

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} \cos \alpha & -\sin \alpha \\ \sin \alpha & \cos \alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow A'=\left[ \begin{matrix} \cos \alpha & \sin \alpha \\ -\sin \alpha & \cos \alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, $\because A+A'=I$

$\therefore \left[ \begin{matrix} \cos \alpha & -\sin \alpha \\ \sin \alpha & \cos \alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} \cos \alpha & \sin \alpha \\ -\sin \alpha & \cos \alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 2\cos \alpha & 0 \\ 0 & 2\cos \alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Equating the corresponding elements of the two matrices, we have:

$\cos \alpha =\dfrac{1}{2}$

$\Rightarrow \alpha ={{\cos }^{-1}}\left( \dfrac{1}{2} \right)$

$\Rightarrow \alpha =\dfrac{\pi }{3}$

Thus, option (B) is correct.

17. Matrices $A$ and $B$ will be inverse of each other only if

1. $AB=BA$

2. $AB=0,BA=I$

3. $AB=BA=0$

4. $AB=BA=I$

Ans: Since, if $A$ is a square matrix of order $m$ , and if there exists another square matrix $B$ of the same order $m$ , such that $AB=BA=I$ , then $B$ is said to be the inverse of $A$. In such a case, it is clear that $A$ is the inverse of $B$.

Thus, matrices $A$ and $B$ will be inverse of each other only if $AB=BA=I$.

Thus, option (D) is correct.

### Miscellaneous Solutions

1. Let $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , show that ${{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{n}}={{a}^{n}}I+n{{a}^{n-1}}bA$ , where $I$ is the identity matrix of order $2}$ and $n\in N$.

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

By using the principle of mathematical induction.

For $n=1$ ,

$P\left( 1 \right):{{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{1}}={{a}^{1}}I+{{a}^{0}}bA$

$\Rightarrow P\left( 1 \right):\left( aI+bA \right)=aI+bA$

Therefore, the result is true for $n=1$ .

Let the result be true for $n=k$ .

That is, $P\left( k \right):{{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{k}}={{a}^{k}}I+k{{a}^{k-1}}bA$

Now, we have to prove that the result is true for $n=k+1$ .

${{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{k-1}}={{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{k}}\left( aI+bA \right)$

$\Rightarrow {{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{k-1}}=\left( {{a}^{k}}I+k{{a}^{k-1}}bA \right)\left( aI+bA \right)$

$\Rightarrow {{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{k-1}}={{a}^{k}}I+\left( k+1 \right){{a}^{k}}bA+k{{a}^{k-1}}{{b}^{2}}{{A}^{2}}$                        …(1)

Now,

${{A}^{2}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

${{A}^{2}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

${{A}^{2}}=0$

$\Rightarrow {{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{k-1}}={{a}^{k}}I+\left( k+1 \right){{a}^{k}}bA$

Thus, the result is true for $n=k+1$

Therefore, by the principal of mathematical induction, we have:

${{\left( aI+bA \right)}^{n}}={{a}^{n}}I+n{{a}^{n-1}}bA$ where $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , $n\in N$.

2. If $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , prove that ${{A}^{n}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} \\ {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} \\ {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , $n\in N$.

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

By using the principles of mathematical induction.

For $n=1$ , we have

$P\left( 1 \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} {{3}^{1-1}} & {{3}^{1-1}} & {{3}^{1-1}} \\ {{3}^{1-1}} & {{3}^{1-1}} & {{3}^{1-1}} \\ {{3}^{1-1}} & {{3}^{1-1}} & {{3}^{1-1}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow P\left( 1 \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} {{3}^{0}} & {{3}^{0}} & {{3}^{0}} \\ {{3}^{0}} & {{3}^{0}} & {{3}^{0}} \\ {{3}^{0}} & {{3}^{0}} & {{3}^{0}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow P\left( 1 \right)=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow P\left( 1 \right)=A$

Therefore, the result is true for $n=1$ .

Let the result be true for $n=k$ .

$P\left( k \right):{{A}^{k}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} \\ {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} \\ {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, we have to prove that the result is true for $n=k+1$ .

Now, ${{A}^{k+1}}=A\cdot {{A}^{k}}$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{k+1}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} \\ {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} \\ {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} & {{3}^{k-1}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{k+1}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} & 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} & 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} \\ 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} & 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} & 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} \\ 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} & 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} & 3\cdot {{3}^{k-1}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{k+1}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} & {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} & {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} \\ {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} & {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} & {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} \\ {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} & {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} & {{3}^{\left( k+1 \right)-1}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Thus, the result is true for $n=k+1$

Therefore, by the principal of mathematical induction, we have:

${{A}^{n}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} \\ {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} \\ {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} & {{3}^{n-1}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ where $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , $n\in N$.

3. If $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & -4 \\ 1 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , then prove ${{A}^{n}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1+2n & -4n \\ n & 1-2n \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ where $n$ is any positive integer.

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & -4 \\ 1 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

By using the principle of mathematical induction.

For $n=1$ ,

$P\left( 1 \right):A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & -4 \\ 1 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Therefore, the result is true for $n=1$ .

Let the result be true for $n=k$ .

That is, $P\left( k \right):{{A}^{k}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1+2k & -4k \\ k & 1-2k \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , $n\in N$

Now, we have to prove that the result is true for $n=k+1$ .

${{A}^{k+1}}=A\cdot {{A}^{k}}$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{k+1}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1+2k & -4k \\ k & 1-2k \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & -4 \\ 1 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{k+1}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3+2k & -4-4k \\ 1+k & -1-2k \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{k+1}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1+2\left( k+1 \right) & -4\left( k+1 \right) \\ 1+k & 1-2\left( k+1 \right) \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Thus, the result is true for $n=k+1$

Therefore, by the principal of mathematical induction, we have:

${{A}^{n}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1+2n & -4n \\ n & 1-2n \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , $n\in N$.

4. If $A$ and $B$ are symmetric matrices, prove that $AB-BA$ is a skew symmetric matrix.

Ans: $A$ and $B$ are symmetric matrix, therefore, we have:

$A'=A$ and $B'=B$                                                    …(1)

Here, $\left( AB-BA \right)'=\left( AB \right)'-\left( BA \right)'$

$\Rightarrow \left( AB-BA \right)'=B'A'-A'B'$

From (1),

$\Rightarrow \left( AB-BA \right)'=BA-AB$

$\Rightarrow \left( AB-BA \right)'=-\left( AB-BA \right)$                           …(2)

From equation (2),

$AB-BA$ is a skew symmetric matrix.

5. Show that the matrix $B'AB$ is symmetric or skew symmetric accordingly as $A$ is symmetric or skew symmetric.

Ans: Let $A$ be a symmetric matrix, then $A'=A$               …(1)

$\left( B'AB \right)'=\left\{ B'\left( AB \right) \right\}'$

$\Rightarrow \left( B'AB \right)'=\left( AB \right)'B'$

$\Rightarrow \left( B'AB \right)'=B'\left( A'B \right)$

From (1),

$\Rightarrow \left( B'AB \right)'=B'\left( AB \right)$

Thus, if $A$ is a symmetric matrix, then $B'AB$ is a symmetric matrix.

Let $A$ be a skew symmetric matrix, then $A'=-A$               …(2)

$\left( B'AB \right)'=\left\{ B'\left( AB \right) \right\}'$

$\Rightarrow \left( B'AB \right)'=\left( AB \right)'B'$

$\Rightarrow \left( B'AB \right)'=B'\left( A'B \right)$

From (2),

$\Rightarrow \left( B'AB \right)'=B'\left( -AB \right)$

$\Rightarrow \left( B'AB \right)'=-B'AB$

Thus, if $A$ is a skew-symmetric matrix, then $B'AB$ is a skew-symmetric matrix.

Therefore, the matrix $B'AB$ is symmetric or skew symmetric accordingly as $A$ is symmetric or skew symmetric.

6. Solve the system of linear equations, using matrix method.

$2x-y=-2$

$3x+4y=3$

Ans: The given system of equation can be written in the form of $AX=B$ where,

$A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & -1 \\ 3 & 4 \\ \end{matrix} \right],X=\left[ \begin{matrix} x \\ y \\ \end{matrix} \right],B=\left[ \begin{matrix} -2 \\ 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, $\left| A \right|=8+3=11$

$\because \left| A \right|\ne 0$ ,therefore its inverse exists.

We know that,

${{A}^{-1}}=\dfrac{1}{\left| A \right|}adjA$

$\therefore {{A}^{-1}}=\dfrac{1}{11}adj\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 & 1 \\ -3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

We can write $X={{A}^{-1}}B$

$\therefore X=\dfrac{1}{11}\left[ \begin{matrix} 4 & 1 \\ -3 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} -2 \\ 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} x \\ y \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\dfrac{1}{11}\left[ \begin{matrix} -5 \\ 12 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} x \\ y \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} \dfrac{-5}{11} \\ \dfrac{12}{11} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Thus, $x=\dfrac{-5}{11}$ and $y=\dfrac{12}{11}$.

7. For what values of $x$ , $\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & 0 \\ 2 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 \\ 2 \\ x \\ \end{matrix} \right]=O$ ?

Ans: Given $\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & 0 \\ 2 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 \\ 2 \\ x \\ \end{matrix} \right]=O$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 1+4+1 & 2+0+0 & 0+2+2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 \\ 2 \\ x \\ \end{matrix} \right]=O$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 6 & 2 & 4 \\\end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 \\ 2 \\ x \\ \end{matrix} \right]=O$

$\Rightarrow \left[ 6\left( 0 \right)+2\left( 2 \right)+4\left( x \right) \right]=O$

$\Rightarrow \left[ 4+4x \right]=\left[ 0 \right]$

$\Rightarrow 4+4x=0$

$\therefore x=-1$

Thus, the required value of $x$ is $-1$ .

8. If $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 1 \\ -1 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ , show that ${{A}^{2}}-5A+7I=O$ .

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 1 \\ -1 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore {{A}^{2}}=A\cdot A$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{2}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 1 \\ -1 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 1 \\ -1 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{2}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 3\left( 3 \right)+1\left( -1 \right) & 3\left( 1 \right)+1\left( 2 \right) \\ -1\left( 3 \right)+2\left( -1 \right) & -1\left( 1 \right)+2\left( 2 \right) \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{2}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 9-1 & 3+2 \\ -3-2 & -1+4 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{2}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} 8 & 5 \\ -5 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

LHS: ${{A}^{2}}-5A+7I$

$\therefore \left[ \begin{matrix} 8 & 5 \\ -5 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-5\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 1 \\ -1 & 2 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+7\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 8 & 5 \\ -5 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]-\left[ \begin{matrix} 15 & 5 \\ -5 & 10 \\ \end{matrix} \right]+\left[ \begin{matrix} 7 & 0 \\ 0 & 7 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow O$

RHS: $\Rightarrow O$

$LHS=RHS$

$\therefore {{A}^{2}}-5A+7I=O$ hence proved.

9. Find $X$ , if $\left[ \begin{matrix} x & -5 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 & 2 \\ 0 & 2 & 1 \\ 2 & 0 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} x \\ 4 \\ 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=O$ .

Ans: Given $\left[ \begin{matrix} x & -5 & -1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 & 2 \\ 0 & 2 & 1 \\ 2 & 0 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} x \\ 4 \\ 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=O$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} x-2 & -10 & 2x-8 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} x \\ 4 \\ 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=O$

$\Rightarrow \left[ x\left( x-2 \right)-40+2x-8 \right]=O$

$\Rightarrow \left[ {{x}^{2}}-48 \right]=\left[ 0 \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{x}^{2}}-48=0$

$\therefore x=\pm 4\sqrt{3}$

Thus, the required value of $x$ is $\pm 4\sqrt{3}$ .

10. A manufacture produces three products $X,Y,Z$ which he sells in two markets.

Annual sales are indicated below:

 Market Products $I$ $10000$ $2000$ $18000$ $II$ $6000$ $20000$ $8000$
1. If unit sale prices of $X,Y,Z$ are Rs $2.50$ , Rs $1.50$ and Rs $1.00$ , respectively, find the total revenue in each market with the help of matrix algebra.

Ans: Here the total revenue in market $I$ can be represented in the form of a matrix as:

$\left[ \begin{matrix} 10000 & 2000 & 18000 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 2.50 \\ 1.50 \\ 1.00 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 1000\times 2.50+2000\times 1.50+18000\times 1.00$

$\Rightarrow 46000$

And, the total revenue in market $II$ can be represented in the form of a matrix as:

$\left[ \begin{matrix} 6000 & 20000 & 8000 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 2.50 \\ 1.50 \\ 1.00 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 6000\times 2.50+20000\times 1.50+8000\times 1.00$

$\Rightarrow 53000$

Thus, the total revenue in market $I$ is Rs $46000$ and the same in market $II$ is Rs $53000$.

1. If the unit costs of the above three commodities are Rs $2.00$ , Rs $1.00$ and $50$ paise respectively. Find the gross profit.

Ans: Here, the total cost prices of all the products in the market $I$ can be represented in the form of a matrix as:

$\left[ \begin{matrix} 10000 & 2000 & 18000 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 2.00 \\ 1.00 \\ 0.50 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 1000\times 2.00+2000\times 1.00+18000\times 0.50$

$\Rightarrow 31000$

As the total revenue in market $I$ is Rs $46000$ , the gross profit in this market is $Rs46000-Rs31000=Rs15000$ .

And, the total revenue in market $II$ can be represented in the form of a matrix as:

$\left[ \begin{matrix} 6000 & 20000 & 8000 \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 2.00 \\ 1.00 \\ 0.50 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow 6000\times 2.00+20000\times 1.00+8000\times 0.50$

$\Rightarrow 36000$

As the total revenue in market $II$ is Rs $53000$ , the gross profit in this market is $Rs53000-Rs36000=Rs17000$ .

11. Find the matrix $X$ so that $X\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} -7 & -8 & -9 \\ 2 & 4 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$.

Ans: Given $X\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} -7 & -8 & -9 \\ 2 & 4 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Here, $X$ has to be a $2\times 2$ matrix.

Now, let $X=\left[ \begin{matrix} a & c \\ b & d \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Thus, we have:

$\left[ \begin{matrix} a & c \\ b & d \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} -7 & -8 & -9 \\ 2 & 4 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} a+4c & 2a+5c & 3a+6c \\ b+4d & 2b+5d & 3b+6d \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} -7 & -8 & -9 \\ 2 & 4 & 6 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Comparing the corresponding elements of two matrices, we have:

$a+4c=-7$

$2a+5c=-8$

$3a+6c=-9$

$b+4d=2$

$2b+5d=4$

$3b+6d=6$

Now, solving the above equations we get,

$\therefore a=1,b=2,c=-2,d=0$

Thus, the required matrix $X$ is $\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & -2 \\ 2 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$.

12. If $A$ and $B$ are square matrices of the same order such that $AB=BA$ , then prove by induction that $A{{B}^{n}}={{B}^{n}}A$ . Further, prove that ${{\left( AB \right)}^{n}}={{B}^{n}}{{A}^{n}}$ for all $n\in N$.

Ans: Given, $A$ and $B$ are square matrices of the same order such that $AB=BA$ .

For $n=1$ , we have:

$P\left( 1 \right):AB=BA$                          (Given)

$\Rightarrow A{{B}^{1}}={{B}^{1}}A$

Therefore, the result is true for $n=1$ .

Let the result be true for $n=k$ .

$P\left( k \right):A{{B}^{k}}={{B}^{k}}A$                                        …(1)

Now, we have to prove that the result is true for $n=k+1$ .

$A{{B}^{k+1}}=A{{B}^{k}}\cdot B$

$\Rightarrow A{{B}^{k+1}}=\left( {{B}^{k}}A \right)B$

$\Rightarrow A{{B}^{k+1}}={{B}^{k}}\left( AB \right)$

$\Rightarrow A{{B}^{k+1}}={{B}^{k}}\left( BA \right)$

$\Rightarrow A{{B}^{k+1}}=\left( {{B}^{k}}B \right)A$

$\Rightarrow A{{B}^{k+1}}={{B}^{k+1}}A$

Therefore, the result is true for $n=k+1$ .

By the principle of mathematical induction, we have $A{{B}^{n}}={{B}^{n}}A$ , $n\in N$.

13. Choose the correct answer in the following questions:

If $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} \alpha & \beta \\ \gamma & -\alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]$ is such that ${{A}^{2}}=I$ then

1. $1+{{\alpha }^{2}}+\beta \gamma =0$

2. $1-{{\alpha }^{2}}+\beta \gamma =0$

3. $1-{{\alpha }^{2}}-\beta \gamma =0$

4. $1+{{\alpha }^{2}}-\beta \gamma =0$

Ans: Given $A=\left[ \begin{matrix} \alpha & \beta \\ \gamma & -\alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\therefore {{A}^{2}}=A\cdot A$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{2}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} \alpha & \beta \\ \gamma & -\alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]\left[ \begin{matrix} \alpha & \beta \\ \gamma & -\alpha \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

$\Rightarrow {{A}^{2}}=\left[ \begin{matrix} {{\alpha }^{2}}+\beta \gamma & \alpha \beta -\alpha \beta \\ \alpha \gamma -\alpha \gamma & \beta \gamma +{{\alpha }^{2}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Now, ${{A}^{2}}=I$

$\Rightarrow \left[ \begin{matrix} {{\alpha }^{2}}+\gamma & 0 \\ 0 & \beta \gamma +{{\alpha }^{2}} \\ \end{matrix} \right]=\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \\ \end{matrix} \right]$

Equating the corresponding elements, we get:

$\beta \gamma +{{\alpha }^{2}}=1$

$\Rightarrow {{\alpha }^{2}}+\beta \gamma -1=0$

$\Rightarrow 1-{{\alpha }^{2}}-\beta \gamma =0$

14. If the matrix $A$ is both symmetric and skew symmetric, then

1. $A$ is a diagonal matrix

2. $A$ is a zero matrix

3. $A$ is a square matrix

4. None of these

Ans: If a matrix $A$ is both symmetric and skew symmetric, then

$A'=A$ and $A'=-A$

$\Rightarrow A=-A$

$\Rightarrow A+A=O$

$\Rightarrow A=O$

Thus, option (B) is correct.

15. If $A$ is a square matrix such that ${{A}^{2}}=A$ , then ${{\left( I+A \right)}^{3}}-7A$ is equal to

1. $A$

2. $I-A$

3. $I$

4. $3A$

Ans: ${{\left( I+A \right)}^{3}}-7A={{I}^{3}}+{{A}^{3}}+3A+3{{A}^{2}}-7A$

$\Rightarrow {{\left( I+A \right)}^{3}}-7A=I+{{A}^{3}}+3A+3{{A}^{2}}-7A$

Given that ${{A}^{2}}=A$ ,

$\Rightarrow {{\left( I+A \right)}^{3}}-7A=I+{{A}^{2}}\cdot A+3A+3{{A}^{2}}-7A$

$\Rightarrow {{\left( I+A \right)}^{3}}-7A=I+A\cdot A-A$

$\Rightarrow {{\left( I+A \right)}^{3}}-7A=I$

Thus, option (C) is correct.

### Some Important Points to remember

1. A matrix is said to be an ordered rectangular array of numbers or functions. These numbers or functions in the array are called the elements or the entries of the matrix.

2. Order of a Matrix

The order of the matrix determines the dimension of the matrix and the number of rows and columns in the matrix. The general representation of matrix order is Amxn, where m is the number of rows and n is the number of columns in the matrix.

3. Types of Matrices

• Column Matrix: A column matrix is a matrix with only one column.

• Row Matrix: A row matrix is a matrix with only one row.

• Square Matrix: A square matrix is one that has an equal number of rows and columns.

• Diagonal Matrix: A diagonal matrix is a square matrix in which all of the entries except the diagonal elements are zeroes.

• Scalar Matrix: A scalar matrix is a diagonal matrix in which all diagonal members are the same (non-zero).

• Identity Matrix: An identity matrix is a diagonal matrix in which all diagonal members are '1' and all non-diagonal elements are zero. It is represented by the letter I.

• Zero or Null Matrix: If all of the elements in a matrix are 0, it is said to be a zero or null matrix.

4. Equality of Matrices: Let A and B be two matrices. These matrices will be equal, if

(i) orders of A and B will be the same

(ii) corresponding elements of two matrices are the same

5. Operations on Matrices

• Addition of Matrices: The addition of matrices is one of the operations on matrices. By adding the corresponding matrices' elements, two or more matrices of the same order can be added.

• Subtraction of Matrices: Matrix subtraction is a matrix operation that performs element-wise subtraction of matrices of the same order, that is, matrices with the same number of rows and columns. When we subtract two matrices, we subtract the elements in each row and column from the respective elements in another matrix's row and column.

• Multiplication of Matrices: Matrix multiplication is a matrix operation done on two matrices when they are both compatible. The primary condition for multiplying two matrices is that the number of columns in the first matrix equals the number of rows in the second matrix, so the order of the matrices becomes important.

6. Properties of Multiplication of Matrices

1. Non-commutativity:

Matrix multiplication will be not commutative i.e. if AB & BA are both defined, then it is not mandatory that AB ≠ BA.

1. Associative law:

For three matrices A, B, and C, if multiplication is defined, then we can write it as A (BC) = (AB) C.

1. Multiplicative identity:

For any square matrix A, there will be an identity matrix of the same order in which  IA = AI = A.
