RBSE Class 12 Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Matrices Miscellaneous Exercise
Question 1.
Let A = , then show that
(aI + bA)n = anI + nan - 1BA
Where I is identity matrix of order 2 and n ∈ N.
Answer:
Now we will show that statement is true for n = k + 1 also i.e.,
i.e., statement P(n) is true for n = k + 1.
Thus, according to principle of mathematical induction statement P(n) is true for ∀ n ∈ N.
⇒
∴ (aI + bA)n = anI + nan - 1bA
Hence Proved.
Question 2.
If A = , then prove that An = , n ∈ N
Answer:
Thus, statement P(n), is true for n = 1
Let statement is true for n = k i.e.,
P(k) = Ak =
Now , we will prove that the statement is true for n = k + 1 also.
∴ Statement P(n), is true for n = k + 1, while it is true for n = k.
Thus, according to the principle of mathematical induction, given statement is true for all positive integer n ∈ N.
Hence Proved.
Question 3.
If A = , then prove that An = , when n is any positive integer.
Answer:
Thus, statement P(n), is true for n = 1.
Let statement is true for n = k, i.e.,
p(k) = Ak = ......... (i)
Now, we will show that statement is true for n = k + 1, Multiplying both sides of Eq. (i) by A
AkA = Ak + 1
∴ Statement P(n) is true for n = k + 1 also, when it is true for n = k
Thus, according to principle of mathematical induction given statement is true for all positive integers n ∈ N.
Hence Proved.
Question 4.
If A and B are symmetric matrices, prove that AB - BA is a skew-symmetric matrix.
Answer:
We have, A and B are symmetric matrices.
So, A’ = A and B’ = B
(AB - BA)’ = (AB)’ - (BA)’ [∵ (X - Y)’ = X’ - Y’]
= B’A’ - A’B’ [∵ (XY)’ = Y’X']
= BA - AB (∵ A’ = A, B’ = B)
= - (AB - BA)
= skew-symmetric
Thus, (AB - BA) is a skew-symmetric matrix.
Hence Proved.
Question 5.
Show that matrix B’AB is symmetric or skew symmetric according as A is symmetric or skew-symmetric.
Answer:
(i) Let A is symmetric matrix, then
A’ = (-A)
∴ (B’ AB)’ = (B’(AB))’
= (AB)’ (B’)’ [By De Morgon’s law]
⇒ (B’AB)’ = (AB)’B [∵ (B')' = B']
⇒ (B’AB)’ = B’A’B [∵ (AB)' = B'A']
⇒ (B’AB)’ = B’AB [∵ A' = A]
⇒ (B’AB) is a symmetric matrix.
Hence proved
(ii) Let A is a skew-symmetric matrix.
∴ A’ = - A
Now (B’(AB))’ = (AB)’ (B’)’
= (B’A’)B (∵ (B')' = B)
= B’(- A)B (∵ A' = - A)
= - (B’AB)
∴ B’AB is a skew-symmetric matrix.
Hence Proved.
Question 6.
Find the values of x, y and z if matrix A = satisfies the equation A'A = I.
Answer:
We have
∴ Comparing corresponding elements in both sides.
2x2 = 1, 6y2 = 1, 3z2 = 1
∴ x = ±, y = ±, z = ±
Question 7.
For what values of x:
[1 2 1] = 0?
Answer:
Question 8.
If A = , show that A2 - 5A + 7I = 0
Answer:
Question 9.
Find x, if
[x - 5 - 1] = 0
Answer:
we have
⇒ [(x - 2) × x - 10 × 4 + (2x - 8) × 1] = [0]
⇒ [x2 - 2x - 40 + 2x - 8] = [0]
⇒ x2 - 48 = 0
⇒ x2 = 48 ⇒ x2 = 16 × 3 ⇒ x = ± 4√3.
Question 10.
A manufacturer produces three products x, y, z which he sells in two markets. Annual sales are indicated below:
(a) If unit sale prices of x, y and z are ₹ 2.50, ₹ 1.50 and ₹ 1.00 respectively, find the total revenue in each market with the help of matrix algebra.
(b) If the unit costs of the above three commodities are ₹ 2.00, ₹ 1.00 and 50 paise respectively. Find the gross profit.
Answer:
Annual sales of products are as follows:
Sale prices of each unit of production x, y, z are ₹ 2.50, ₹ 1.50 and ₹ 1.00 respectively. Writing this in matrix form
(a) Income of both markets is obtained by multiplying both matrices. Thus,
Thus, income from each market is ₹ 46,000 and ₹ 53,000.
(b) When unit costs of each product x, y, z are ₹ 2.00, ₹ 1.00 and ₹ 0.50, then writing them in matrix form.
Thus, cost price in market will be obtained as:
Profit of 1st market
= selling price - cost price
= 46,000 - 31,000 = ₹ 15,000
Profit of IInd market
= 53,000 - 36000 = ₹ 17,000
Question 11.
Find the matrix X so that X
X
Answer:
We have
Comparing corresponding elements of both sides.
a + 4b = - 7 ...... (i)
2a + 5b = - 8 ....... (ii)
3a + 9 = - 9 ........... (iii)
c + 4d = 2 .......... (v)
2c + 5d = 4 ....... (v)
3c + 6d = 6 ........ (vi)
Multiply equation (i) by 2 and then subtracting equation
(ii) from it
Substituting value of b in euqation (iii), we get
3a + 6 × (- 2) = - 9
⇒ 3a - 12 = - 9
⇒ 3a = 12 - 9
⇒ 3a = 3
∴ a = 1
Multiplying Eq. (iv) by 2 and then substracting Eq. (v) from it
Putting value of d in equation (vi), we get
3c + 6 × 0 = 6
⇒ 3c =6
∴ c = 2
Now, putting values of a, b, c and d in ,
Thus, X =
Question 12.
If A and B are square matrices of the same order such that AB = BA, then prove by induction that ABn = BnA. Further, prove that (AB)n = AnBn for all n ∈ N.
Answer:
Let P(n) = ABn = BnA
where AB = BA
For n = 1
P(n) = AB1 = AB = BA (Given)
∴ For n = 1, statement P(n) is true
Let for n = k, statement is true, i.e.,
P(k) = ABk = BkA ....... (i)
Now, we will show that statement is true for n = k + 1 also.
Multiplying both sides of Eq. (i) by B.
L.H.S. = ABkB = ABk + 1
and R.H.S. = (BkA)B = Bk(AB) .
(By associativity of multiplication of matrices)
= Bk(BA) (∵ AB = BA)
= (BkB)A .
(By associativity of multiplication of matrices)
= Bk + 1A
∴ ABk + 1 = Bk + 1A (AB = BA, given)
⇒ P(n), is true for n = k + 1.
Thus, by the principle of mathematical induction, given statement is true for all positive integers n ∈ N.
Again, let P(n) : (AB)n = AnBn
Puffing n = 1
P(n):(AB)1 = A1B1
⇒ AB = AB
Thus, given statement is true for n = 1.
Let given statem. is true for n = k
i.e., P(k) : (AB)nk = AkBk .......... (ii)
Multiplying both sides of Eq. (ii) by AB.
L.H.S. = (AB)k (AB) = (AB)k + 1
R.H.S. = (AkBk) (AB) = AkBk (BA) (∵ AB = BA)
= Ak (BkB)A
(By associativity of multiplication of matrices)
= Ak (Bk + 1A)
= Ak (ABk + 1) [∵ ABk = BkA]
= (AkA) Bk + 1 = Ak + 1 Bk + 1
(By associativity of multiplication of matrices)
Thus (AB)k + 1 = k + 1 Bk + 1
∴ Given statement P(n), is true for n = k + 1 also it is true for n = k.
Thus, by the principle of mathematical induction, given statement is true for all positive integers n ∈ N.
Hence Proved.
Choose the correct answer in the following questions:
Question 13.
If A = is such that A2 = I, then:
(A) 1 + α2 + βγ = 0
(B) 1 - α2 + βγ = 0
(C) 1 - α2 - βγ = 0
(D) 1 + α2 - βγ = 0
Answer:
Comparing elements of both sides,
α2 + βγ = 1 or γβ + α2 = 1
∴ 1 - α2 - βγ = 0
Thus, option (C) is correct.
Question 14.
If the matrix A is both symmetric and skew-symmetric, then
(A) A is a diagonal matrix
(B) A is a zero matrix
(C) A is a square matrix
(D) None of these
Answer:
Let A = [aij]
For symmetric matrix
aij = aji ......... (i)
For skew-symmetric matrix
aij = - aji ........... (ii)
Since, given matrix is symmetric and skew-symmetric both. Thus, it will satisfy (i) and (ii) together.
Adding (i) and (ii),
aij + aij = aji - aji
⇒ 2ij = 0
⇒ aij = 0
∴ aij = aij = 0, (∀ i, j)
Thus, given square matrix is null matrix.
∴ Option (B) is correct.
Question 15.
If A is square matrix such that A2 = A, then (I + A)3 - 7A is equal to:
(A) A
(B) I - A
(C) I
(D) 3A
Answer:
We have
A2 = A
∵ A3 = A2A = AA
= A2 = A (∵ A2 = A, AA = A2)
∴ A3 = A
∵ (I + A)3 - 7A = I3 + 3I2A + 3IA2 + A3 - 7A
= I + 3A + 3A2 + A3 - 7A
[∵ (I + A)3 = (I + A) (I + A) (I + A)]
= I + 3A + 3A + A - 7A
= I + 7A - 7A = I
Thus, option (C) is correct.
