a) Given

the key matrix K=

find its inverse =

Inverse

K^-1=

0 -1 1

Interchange
R1 and R2

R2= -2R1+R2
R3= -R1+R3

R2= -R2

R2= R2+ R2

R1= R1-R2

b) Use

your result from part (a) to decode the encrypted matrix E=

M= E*K^-1=

44 36 27

-1 1 1

8 9 19

47 41 20

0 -1 1

6 21 14

Because
a 11 = 47(1)+34(-1)+33(0)=13
a 12 = 47(0)+34(1)+33(-1)=1

c) What is the original


alphabet?

a 13 = 47(-1)+34(1)+33(1)=20
a 21 = 44(0)+36(-1)+27(0)=8
a 22 = 44(0)+36(1)+27(-1)=9
a 23 = 44(-1)+36(1)+27(1)=19
a 31 = 47(1)+41(-1)+20(0)=6
a 32 = 47(0)+41(1)+20(-1)=2
a 33 = 47(-1)+41(1)+20(1)=14
