RBSE Class 12 Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Determinants Ex 4.2
Question 1.
= 0
Answer:
Question 2.
= 0
Answer:
Question 3.
= 0
Answer:
Question 4.
= 0
Answer:
Question 5.
Answer:
Question 6.
= 0
Answer:
= - Δ
⇒ Δ + Δ = 0 ⇒ 2Δ = 0
⇒ Δ = 0
Hence proved.
Question 7.
= 4a2b2c2
Answer:
Question 8.
(i) = (a - b) (b - c) (c - a)
Answer:
Taking (b - a) and (c - a) common from R2 and R3 respectively
Δ = (b - a) (c - a)
Expanding along C1
Δ = (b - a) (c - a)
= (b - a) (c - a) {c + a - b - a}
= (b - a) (c - a) (c - b)
= (a - b) (b - c) (c - a)
Hence proved
(ii) = (a - b) (b - c) (c - a) (a + b + c)
Answer:
= (a - b) (b - c) × {b2 + bc + c2 - a2 - ab - b2}
= (a - b) (b - c) {c2 - a2 + bc - ab}
= (a - b) (b - c) × {(c - a) (c + a) + b(c - a)}
= (a - b) (b - c) (c - a) (a + b + c)
Hence Proved.
Question 9.
= (x - y) (y - z) (z - x) (xy + yz + zx)
Answer:
Taking (x - y) and (y - z) common from R1 and R2 respectively
= (x - y) (y - z) (z - x) × {xy - z2 + z(x + y + z)}
= (x - y) (y - z) (z - x) × (xy - z2 + xz + yz + z2)
= (x - y) (y - z) (z - x) (xy + yz + zx)
Hence Proved.
Question 10.
(i) = (5x + 4) (4 - x)2
Answer:
= (5x - 4) {(x - 4) (x - 4) - 0 × (4 - x)}
= (5x + 4) (x - 4)2
= (5x + 4) (4 - x)2
Hence Proved.
(ii) = k2(3y + k)
Answer:
Question 11.
(i) = (a + b + c)3
Answer:
(ii) = 2(x + y + z)3
Answer:
Question 12.
= (1 - x3)2
Answer:
= (1 + x + x2) (1 - x2) (1 + x + x2)
= (1 + x + x2)2 (1 - x)2 = {(1 + x + x2) (1 - x)}2
= (1 - x3)2
Hence proved.
Question 13.
= (1 + a2 + b2)3
Answer:
= (1 + a2 + b2)2 {1 - a2 - b2 + 2a2 + 2b2}
= (1 + a2 + b2)2 {1 + a2 + b2}
= (1 + a2 + b2)3
Hence Proved.
Question 14.
= 1 + a2 + b2 + c2
Answer:
= (1 + a2 + b2 + c2) {1 (1 × 1 - 0)}
= (1 + a2 + b2 + c2).1
= 1 + a2 + b2 + c2
Hence Proved.
Question 15.
Let A be a square matrix of order 3 × 3,then | kA | is equal to:
(A) k|A|
(B) k2|A|
(C) k3|A|
(D) 3k |A|
Answer:
Thus, option (C) is correct.
