QUESTION
SOLUTION
Let A =
∴ AT =
∴ AT = A i.e., A = AT
∴ A is a symmetric matrix.
For each of the following matrices, find its transpose and state whether it is symmetric, skew- symmetric or neither.
SOLUTION
Let A =
∴ AT =
∴ AT =
∴ A ≠ AT and A ≠ – AT
∴ A is neither symmetric nor skew – symmetric matrix.
For each of the following matrices, find its transpose and state whether it is symmetric, skew- symmetric or neither.
SOLUTION
Let A =
∴ AT =
∴ AT =
∴ AT = – A i.e. A = – AT
∴ A is a skew-symmetric matrix.
Construct the matrix A = [aij]3×3 where aij = i − j. State whether A is symmetric or skew-symmetric.
SOLUTION
A = [aij]3x3
∴ A =
Given, aij = i – j
∴ a11 = 1 – 1 = 0, a12 = 1 – 2 = – 1, a13 = 1 – 3 = – 2
a21 = 2 – 1= 1, a22 = 2 – 2 = 0, a23 = 2 – 3 = – 1,
a31 = 3 – 1 = 2, a32 = 3 - 2 = 1, a33 = 3 – 3 = 0
∴ A =
∴ AT =
=
∴ AT = – A i.e., A = – AT
∴ A is a skew-symmetric matrix.
QUESTION
Solve the following equations for X and Y, if 3X − Y =
SOLUTION
Given equations are
3X – Y =
and X – 3Y =
By (i) x 3 – (ii), we get
8X =
=
=
∴ 8X =
∴ X =
∴ X =
=
By (i) – (ii) x 3, we get
8Y =

QUESTION
Find matrices A and B, if 2A – B =
SOLUTION
Given equations are
2A – B =
and A – 2B =
By (i) – (ii) x 2, we get
3B =
=
=
∴ 3B =
∴ B =
∴ B =
By (i) x 2 – (ii), we get
3A =
=
=
∴ 3A =
∴ A =
∴ A =

QUESTION
Find x and y, if
SOLUTION
∴
∴
∴ By equality of matrices, we get
2x + y – 1 = 3 and 4y = 18
∴ 2x + y = 4 and y =
∴
∴ 2x =
∴ 2x =
∴ x =
Exercise 2.2 | Q 14 | Page 47
QUESTION
If
SOLUTION
∴ By equality of matrices, we get
2a + b = 2 ....(i)
3a – b = 3 ....(ii)
c + 2d = 4 ....(iii)
2c –d = – 1 ....(iv)
Adding (i) and (ii), we get
5a = 5
∴ a = 1
Substituting a = 1 in (i), we get
2(1) + b = 2
∴ b = 0
By (iii) + (iv) x 2, we get
5c = 2
∴ c =
Substituting c =
∴ 2d =
∴ 2d =
∴ d =
QUESTION
There are two book shops own by Suresh and Ganesh. Their sales ( in Rupees) for books in three subject - Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics for two months, July and August 2017 are given by two matrices A and B. July sales ( in Rupees) :
Physics Chemistry Mathematics
A =
August Sales (in Rupees :
B =
Find the increase in sales in Rupees from July to August 2017.
SOLUTION
For Suresh :
Increase in sales for Physics books
= 6650 – 5600 = ₹ 1050
Increase in sales for Chemistry books
= 7055 – 6750 = ₹ 305
Increase in sales for Mathematics books
= 8905 – 8500 = ₹ 405
For Ganesh :
Increase in sales for Physics books
= 7000 – 6650 = ₹ 350
Increase in sales for Chemistry books
= 7500 – 7055 = ₹ 455
Increase in sales for Mathematics books
= 10200 – 8905 = ₹ 1295.
