    Sheet 9 Eigenvectors and Eigenvalues sheet’s answers Linear Algebra

    Find eigenvectors and eigenvalues of A:


    −2 1
    𝐴=( )
    12 −3
    Solution:
    |𝐴 − 𝜆𝐼| = (−2 − 𝜆 1
    )
    12 −3 − 𝜆

    𝑑𝑒𝑡 = (−2 − 𝜆)(−3 − 𝜆) − 12

    , 𝜆2 + 5𝜆 − 6 = 0
    𝜆 = {1, −6} (eigenvalues)

    Substituting for 𝜆 = 1:
    −2 − 1 1 𝑥 0
    𝑒𝑖𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑣𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟1 = ( ) (𝑦) = ( )
    12 −3 − 1 0
    −3 1
    𝑟𝑒𝑓 → ( ) , 3𝑥 = 1𝑦, 𝑙𝑒𝑡 𝑥 = 1
    0 0
    3 ∗ 1 = 1 ∗ 3, 𝑥 = 1, 𝑦 = 3
    1
    𝑒𝑖𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑣𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟1 = ( )
    3

    Substituting for 𝜆 = −6:


    −2 + 6 1 𝑥 0
    𝑒𝑖𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑣𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟2 = ( )( ) = ( )
    12 −3 + 6 𝑦 0
    1
    𝑟𝑒𝑓 → (1 4) , 4𝑥 = −𝑦, 𝑙𝑒𝑡 𝑥 = 1
    0 0
    1
    1 = − ∗ −1, 𝑥 = 1, 𝑦 = −4
    4
    1
    𝑒𝑖𝑔𝑒𝑛𝑣𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟2 = ( )
    −4
    Note: you may get another answer. If your eigenvector is a multiple of my eigenvector, you are also right,
    and it is a valid answer.
