Problem Sheet - 1 (Unit - 1 - Matrix and Determinants)

1. Given a square matrix A, Show that |A| = |AT |.

2. If we interchange any two rows (or columns), then prove that sign of the determinant changes.

3. If any two rows or any two columns in a determinant are identical (or proportional), then prove
that the value of the determinant is zero.

4. Verify that multiplying a determinant by k means multiplying the elements of only one row (or
one column) by k.

5. If we multiply each element of a row (or a column) of a determinant by constant k, then verify
that the value of the determinant is multiplied by k.

6. For two matrices A and B of same order, prove that |AB| = |A|.|B|

7. If A is Upper-triangular or a Lower-triangular matrix, then prove that |A| is the product of all
its diagonal elements.
