Find a matrix D such that CD – AB = 0

Ans. Let

2a + 5c – 3 = 0

2b + 5d = 0

3a + 8c – 43 = 0

3b + 8d – 22 = 0

a = -191, b = -110, c = 77, d = 44

9. If , then prove that

where n is any positive integer

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 9 / 25


Ans. For n = 1

Hence result is true for n =1

Let result is true for n = k

now, we prove their result is true for n = k + 1

P (K + 1) is true Hence P (n) is true.

10. for what values of x

Ans.

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 10 / 25


4 + 2x + 2x = 0

4x =-4

x = -1

11. Find the matrix X so that

Ans. Let

a = 1, b = -2, c = 2, d = 0

12. , Show that

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 11 / 25


Where I is the identify matrix of order 2 and n N

Ans. When n = 1

aI + bA = aI + bA

L.H.S = R.H.S

When n = k

(aI + bA)K = AKI + KaK-1bA……….. (i)

Result is true for n = k

When n = k + 1

(aI + bA)k+1 = (aI + bA). (aI + bA)k

= (aI + bA). (akI + kak-1ba) [From (i)]

= aI (akI + kak-1ba) + bA (akI + kak-1 bA)

= ak+1I + kakba + akba + kak-1 b2A2

= ak+1 + (k+1) akbA

Hence result is true for n = k+1

When eves it is true for n = k

13. Find the values of x, y, z if the matrix

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 12 / 25


Satisfy the equation = I3

Ans.

14. If Show that A2 - 5A = 7I = 0

Ans. A2 – 5A + 7I = 0

A2 = 5A – 7I

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 13 / 25


A2 = A2.A

= (5A – 7I) .A

= 5A2 – 7AI

= 5A2 – 7A

= 5(5A – 7I) – 7A

= 25A – 35I – 7A

= 18A – 35I

A4 = A3.A

= (18A – 35I).A

=18A2 – 35IA

= 18(5A – 7I) – 35A

= 90A – 126I – 35A

= 55A – 126I

15. If A is a square matrix such that A2 = A, then (I + A)3 – 7A is equal to

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 14 / 25


Ans. (I + A)3 – 7A = I3 + A3 + 3IA (I + A) – 7A

= I + A3 + 3I2A + 3IA2 – 7A

= I + A3 + 3A + 3A2 – 7A

= I + A3 + 3A + 3A – 7A {A2 = A}

= I + A3 – A

= I + A2 – A

= I + A – A {A2 = A}

= I

16. Construct 2 3 matrix whose element aij are given by

Ans.

For i = j

aij = 4i.j

a11 = 4 1 = 4

a22 = 4 2 2 = 16

For i < j

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 15 / 25


aij = 2i + j

a12 = 2 1 +2 = 4

a13 = 2 1 + 3 = 5

a23 = 2 2 + 3 = 7

For i > j

aij = I + 2j

a21 = 2 +2 1 = 4

17. If

then show that A3 – 23A – 40I = 0

Ans.

is a symmetric matrix

Let

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 18 / 25


Thus is a skew symmetric matrix

19. If

Ans. For n = 1

Result is true for n = 1

Let it be true for n = k

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 19 / 25


Thus result is true for n = k+1

Whenever it is true for n = k

20. If

then find the matrix X such that 2A + 3X = 5B.

Ans. 3X = 5B – 2A

21. If then prove that

Ans. For n = 1

Result is true for n = 1

Let result is true for n = k

Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 21 / 25


Thus result is true for n = k + 1

Whenever result is true for n = k
