Matrices Worksheet 1

The document is a true/false worksheet about matrices. It contains 17 true/false statements about matrices, including statements about matrix addition and multiplication properties, types of matrices like identity and symmetric matrices, and conditions for matrices being equal. The answers to the true/false statements are provided. The document also contains two short questions - to construct a 2x2 matrix with elements of the form e^2x sinjx, and another with elements of the form 2i - 3j. The answers to the questions are also provided.

Matrices Worksheet-1 Mathematics


True or False statement

a) A matrix denotes a number.


b) Matrices of any order can be added.
c) Two matrices are equal if they have same number of rows and same number of
columns.
d) Matrices of different order cannot be subtracted.
e) Matrix addition is associative as well as commutative.
f) Matrix multiplication is commutative.
g) A square matrix where every element is unity is called an identity matrix.
h) If A and B are two square matrices of the same order, then A + B = B + A.
i) If A and B are two matrices of the same order, then A – B = B – A.
j) If matrix AB = O, then A = O or B = O or both A and B are null matrices.
k) Transpose of a column matrix is a column matrix.
l) If A and B are two square matrices of the same order, then AB = BA.
m) . If each of the three matrices of the same order are symmetric, then their sum
is a symmetric matrix.
n) If A and B are any two matrices of the same order, then (AB)2= A2B2
o). If (AB)2= B2A2, where A and B are not square matrices, then number of rows
in A is equal to number of columns in B and number of columns in A is equal to
number of rows in B.
p) If A, B and C are square matrices of same order, then AB = AC always implies
that B = C.
q). If

and

2 1

, then AB and BA are defined and equal.

r). If A is skew symmetric matrix, then A2 is a symmetric matrix.


s). (AB)-1 = A-1. B-1 where A and B are invertible matrices satisfying commutative
property with respect to multiplication.

Answer
