Matrices Miscellaneous Exercise:

Question:1 Let A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 &1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}, show that (aI + bA)^n = a^n I + na^{n-1} bA, where I is the identity matrix of order 2 and n \in N.

Answer:

Given :

A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 &1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}

To prove : (aI + bA)^n = a^n I + na^{n-1} bA

For n=1, aI + bA = a I + a^{0} bA =a I + bA

The result is true for n=1.

Let result be true for n=k,

(aI + bA)^k = a^k I + ka^{k-1} bA

Now, we prove that the result is true for n=k+1,

(aI + bA)^{k+1} = (aI + bA)^k (aI + bA)

= (a^k I + ka^{k-1} bA)(aI + bA)

=a^{k+1}I+Ka^{k}bAI+a^{k}bAI+ka^{k-1}b^{2}A^{2}

=a^{k+1}I+(k+1)a^{k}bAI+ka^{k-1}b^{2}A^{2}

A^{2} = \begin{bmatrix} 0 &1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 0 &1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}

A^{2} = \begin{bmatrix} 0 &0 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}=0

Put the value of A^{2} in above equation,

(aI + bA)^{k+1}=a^{k+1}I+(k+1)a^{k}bAI+ka^{k-1}b^{2}A^{2}

(aI + bA)^{k+1}=a^{k+1}I+(k+1)a^{k}bAI+0

=a^{k+1}I+(k+1)a^{k}bAI

Hence, the result is true for n=k+1.

Thus, we have (aI + bA)^n = a^n I + na^{n-1} bA where A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 &1 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix},n \in N.

Question 2. If A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& 1& 1\\ 1& 1& 1 \end{bmatrix} then show that A^n =\begin{bmatrix} 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1} &3^{n-1} \\ 3^{n-1}& 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1}\\ 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1}& 3^{n-1} \end{bmatrix}, n\in N.

Answer:

Given :

A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& 1& 1\\ 1& 1& 1 \end{bmatrix}

To prove:

A^n =\begin{bmatrix} 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1} &3^{n-1} \\ 3^{n-1}& 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1}\\ 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1}& 3^{n-1} \end{bmatrix}

For n=1, we have

A^1 =\begin{bmatrix} 3^{1-1} & 3^{1-1} &3^{1-1} \\ 3^{1-1}& 3^{1-1} & 3^{1-1}\\ 3^{1-1} & 3^{1-1}& 3^{1-1} \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix} 3^{0} & 3^{0} &3^{0} \\ 3^{0}& 3^{0} & 3^{0}\\ 3^{0} & 3^{0}& 3^{0} \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& 1& 1\\ 1& 1& 1 \end{bmatrix}=A

Thus, the result is true for n=1.

Now, take n=k,

A^k =\begin{bmatrix} 3^{k-1} & 3^{k-1} &3^{k-1} \\ 3^{k-1}& 3^{k-1} & 3^{k-1}\\ 3^{k-1} & 3^{k-1}& 3^{k-1} \end{bmatrix}

For, n=k+1,

A^{K+1}=A.A^K

= \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& 1& 1\\ 1& 1& 1 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 3^{k-1} & 3^{k-1} &3^{k-1} \\ 3^{k-1}& 3^{k-1} & 3^{k-1}\\ 3^{k-1} & 3^{k-1}& 3^{k-1} \end{bmatrix}

=\begin{bmatrix}3. 3^{k-1} & 3.3^{k-1} &3.3^{k-1} \\3. 3^{k-1}& 3.3^{k-1} & 3.3^{k-1}\\3. 3^{k-1} & 3.3^{k-1}&3. 3^{k-1} \end{bmatrix}

=\begin{bmatrix} 3^{(K+1)-1} &3^{(K+1)-1} &3^{(K+1)-1}\\ 3^{(K+1)-1}&3^{(K+1)-1} &3^{(K+1)-1}\\ 3^{(K+1)-1} & 3^{(K+1)-1}& 3^{(K+1)-1}\end{bmatrix}

Thus, the result is true for n=k+1.

Hence, we have A^n =\begin{bmatrix} 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1} &3^{n-1} \\ 3^{n-1}& 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1}\\ 3^{n-1} & 3^{n-1}& 3^{n-1} \end{bmatrix}, n\in N where A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1\\ 1& 1& 1\\ 1& 1& 1 \end{bmatrix}.

Question 3. If A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & -4\\ 1& -1 \end{bmatrix}, then prove that A^n = \begin{bmatrix} 1+2n & -4n \\ n & 1-2n \end{bmatrix}, where n is any positive integer.

Answer:

Given :

A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & -4\\ 1& -1 \end{bmatrix}

To prove:

A^n = \begin{bmatrix} 1+2n & -4n \\ n & 1-2n \end{bmatrix}

For n=1, we have

A^1 = \begin{bmatrix} 1+2\times 1 & -4\times 1\\ 1 & 1-2\times 1 \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} 3 & -4\\ 1 & -1 \end{bmatrix}=A

Thus, result is true for n=1.

Now, take result is true for n=k,

A^k = \begin{bmatrix} 1+2k & -4k\\ k & 1-2k \end{bmatrix}

For, n=k+1,

A^{K+1}=A.A^K

= \begin{bmatrix} 3 & -4\\ 1& -1 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1+2k & -4k\\ k & 1-2k \end{bmatrix}

=\begin{bmatrix} 3(1+2k)-4k & -12k-4(1-2k)\\ (1+2k)-k &-4k-(1-2k) \end{bmatrix}

=\begin{bmatrix} 3+6k-4k & -12k-4k+8k\\ 1+k &-4k-1+2k \end{bmatrix}

=\begin{bmatrix} 3+2k & -4k-4k\\ 1+k &-2k-1 \end{bmatrix}

=\begin{bmatrix} 1+2(k+1)& -4(k+1)\\ 1+k &1-2(k+1) \end{bmatrix}

Thus, the result is true for n=k+1.

Hence, we have A^n = \begin{bmatrix} 1+2n & -4n \\ n & 1-2n \end{bmatrix}, where A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & -4\\ 1& -1 \end{bmatrix}.

Question 4. If A and B are symmetric matrices, prove that AB - BA is a skew symmetric matrix.

Answer:

If A, B are symmetric matrices then

A'=A and B' = B

we have, \left ( AB-BA \right )'=\left ( AB \right )'-\left ( BA \right )'=B'A'-A'B'

=BA-AB

= -(AB-BA)

Hence, we have (AB-BA) = -(AB-BA)'

Thus,( AB-BA)' is skew symmetric.

Question 5. Show that the matrix B′AB is symmetric or skew symmetric according as A is symmetric or skew symmetric.

Answer:

Let be a A is symmetric matrix , then A'=A

Consider, (B'AB)' ={B'(AB)}'

={(AB)}'(B')'

= B'A'(B)

= B'(A'B)

Replace A' by A

=B'(AB)

i.e. (B'AB)' =B'(AB)

Thus, if A is a symmetric matrix than B'(AB) is a symmetric matrix.


Now, let A be a skew-symmetric matrix, then A'=-A.

(B'AB)' ={B'(AB)}'

={(AB)}'(B')'

= B'A'(B)

= B'(A'B)

Replace A' by -A,

=B'(-AB)

= - B'AB

i.e. (B'AB)' = - B'AB.

Thus, if A is a skew-symmetric matrix then - B'AB is a skew-symmetric matrix.

Hence, the matrix B′AB is symmetric or skew-symmetric according to as A is symmetric or skew-symmetric.

Question 6. Find the values of x, y, z if the matrix A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 2y & z\\ x & y & -z\\ x & -y &z \end{bmatrix} satisfy the equation A'A = I

Answer:

A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 2y & z\\ x & y & -z\\ x & -y &z \end{bmatrix}

A' = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & x & x\\ 2y & y & -y\\ z & -z &z \end{bmatrix}

A'A = I

\begin{bmatrix} 0 & x & x\\ 2y & y & -y\\ z & -z &z \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 2y & z\\ x & y & -z\\ x & -y &z \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0& 0\\ 0 & 1 & 0\\ 0 & 0 &1\end{bmatrix}

\begin{bmatrix} x^{2}+x^{2} & xy-xy& -xz+xz\\ xy-xy& 4y^{2}+y^{2}+y^{2} & 2yz-yz-yz\\ -zx+zx & 2yz-yz-yz &z^{2}+z^{2}+z^{2}\end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0& 0\\ 0 & 1 & 0\\ 0 & 0 &1\end{bmatrix}

\begin{bmatrix} 2x^{2} & 0& 0\\ 0& 6y^{2} & 0\\ 0 & 0 &3z^{2}\end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0& 0\\ 0 & 1 & 0\\ 0 & 0 &1\end{bmatrix}

Thus equating the terms element wise

2x^{2} = 1 6y^{2} = 1 3z^{2} = 1

x^{2} = \frac{1}{2} y^{2} = \frac{1}{6} z^{2}=\frac{1}{3}

x = \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} y= \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{6}} z=\pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}

Question 7. For what values of x: \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 1 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 0\\ 2 & 0 &1 \\ 1& 0& 2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 0\\ 2 \\ x \end{bmatrix} = O?

Answer:

\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 1 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 0\\ 2 & 0 &1 \\ 1& 0& 2\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 0\\ 2 \\ x \end{bmatrix} = O

\begin{bmatrix} 1+4+1 & 2+0+0 & 0+2+2 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 0\\ 2 \\ x \end{bmatrix} = O

\begin{bmatrix} 6& 2& 4 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 0\\ 2 \\ x \end{bmatrix} = O

\begin{bmatrix} 0+4+4x \end{bmatrix} = O

4+4x=0

4x=-4

x=-1

Thus, value of x is -1.

Question 8. If A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 &1 \\ -1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}, show that A^2 -5A + 7I= 0.

Answer:

A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 &1 \\ -1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}

A^{2} = \begin{bmatrix} 3 &1 \\ -1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 3 &1 \\ -1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}

A^{2} = \begin{bmatrix} 9-1 &3+2 \\ -3-2 & -1+4 \end{bmatrix}

A^{2} = \begin{bmatrix} 8 &5 \\ -5 & 3 \end{bmatrix}

I= \begin{bmatrix} 1 &0 \\ 0& 1 \end{bmatrix}

To prove: A^2 -5A + 7I= 0

L.H.S : A^2 -5A + 7I

= \begin{bmatrix} 8 &5 \\ -5 & 3 \end{bmatrix}-5 \begin{bmatrix} 3 &1 \\ -1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}+ 7 \begin{bmatrix} 1 &0 \\ 0& 1 \end{bmatrix}

=\begin{bmatrix} 8-15+7 &5-5+0 \\ -5+5+0& 3-10+7 \end{bmatrix}

=\begin{bmatrix} 0 &0 \\ 0& 0 \end{bmatrix} =0=R.H.S

Hence, we proved that

A^2 -5A + 7I= 0.

Question 9. Find x, if \begin{bmatrix} x & -5 & -1 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 2\\ 0 & 2 & 1\\ 2 & 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} x\\ 4\\ 1 \end{bmatrix} = 0.

Answer:

\begin{bmatrix} x & -5 & -1 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 2\\ 0 & 2 & 1\\ 2 & 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} x\\ 4\\ 1 \end{bmatrix} = 0

\begin{bmatrix} x +0-2& 0-10+0 & 2x-5-3 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} x\\ 4\\ 1 \end{bmatrix} = 0

\begin{bmatrix} x -2& -10 & 2x-8 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} x\\ 4\\ 1 \end{bmatrix} = 0

\begin{bmatrix}x (x -2)-40+(2x-8) \end{bmatrix} = 0

\begin{bmatrix}x ^{2}-2x-40+2x-8\end{bmatrix} = 0

\therefore \, \, x ^{2}-48= 0

x ^{2}=48

thus the value of x is

x =\pm 4\sqrt{3}

Question 10(a) A manufacturer produces three products x, y, z which he sells in two markets.
Annual sales are indicated below:

Market Products
I 10,000 2,000 18,000
II 6,000 20,000 8,000

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.

Answer:

The unit sale prices of x, y and z are ` 2.50, ` 1.50 and ` 1.00, respectively.

The total revenue in the market I with the help of matrix algebra can be represented as :

\begin{bmatrix} 10000& 2000 & 18000 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 2.50\\ 1.50\\ 1.00 \end{bmatrix}

= 10000\times 2.50+2000\times 1.50+18000\times 1.00

= 25000+3000+18000

= 46000

The total revenue in market II with the help of matrix algebra can be represented as :

\begin{bmatrix} 6000& 20000 & 8000 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 2.50\\ 1.50\\ 1.00 \end{bmatrix}

= 6000\times 2.50+20000\times 1.50+8000\times 1.00

= 15000+30000+8000

= 53000

Hence, total revenue in the market I is 46000 and total revenue in market II is 53000.

Question 10(b). A manufacturer produces three products x, y, z which he sells in two markets.
Annual sales are indicated below:

Market Products
I 10,000 2,000 18,000
II 6,000 20,000 8,000

If the unit costs of the above three commodities are ` 2.00, ` 1.00 and 50 paise respectively. Find the gross profit.

Answer:

The unit costs of the above three commodities are ` 2.00, ` 1.00 and 50 paise respectively.

The total cost price in market I with the help of matrix algebra can be represented as :

\begin{bmatrix} 10000& 2000 & 18000 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 2.00\\ 1.00\\ 0.50 \end{bmatrix}

= 10000\times 2.00+2000\times 1.00+18000\times 0.50

= 20000+2000+9000

= 31000

Total revenue in the market I is 46000 , gross profit in the market is = 46000-31000=Rs. 15000

The total cost price in market II with the help of matrix algebra can be represented as :

\begin{bmatrix} 6000& 20000 & 8000 \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} 2.00\\ 1.00\\ 0.50 \end{bmatrix}

= 6000\times 2.0+20000\times 1.0+8000\times 0.50

= 12000+20000+4000

= 36000

Total revenue in market II is 53000, gross profit in the market is= 53000-36000= Rs. 17000

Question 11. Find the matrix X so that X\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 &3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} -7 & -8 & -9\\ 2 &4 & 6 \end{bmatrix}

Answer:

X\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 &3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} -7 & -8 & -9\\ 2 &4 & 6 \end{bmatrix}

The matrix given on R.H.S is 2\times 3 matrix and on LH.S is 2\times 3 matrix.Therefore, X has to be 2\times 2 matrix.

Let X be \begin{bmatrix} a & c\\ b & d \end{bmatrix}

\begin{bmatrix} a & c\\ b & d \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 &3 \\ 4 & 5 & 6 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} -7 & -8 & -9\\ 2 &4 & 6 \end{bmatrix}

\begin{bmatrix} a+4c & 2a+5c &3a+6c \\ b+4d & 2b+5d & 3b+6d \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} -7 & -8 & -9\\ 2 &4 & 6 \end{bmatrix}

a+4c=-7 2a+5c=-8 3a+6c=-9

b+4d=2 2b+5d=4 3b+6d=6

Taking, a+4c=-7

a=-4c-7

2a+5c=-8

-8c-14+5c=-8

-3c=6

c=-2

a=-4\times -2-7

a=8-7=1

b+4d=2

b=-4d+2

2b+5d=4

\Rightarrow -8d+4+5d=4

\Rightarrow -3d=0

\Rightarrow d=0

b=-4d+2

\Rightarrow b=-4\times 0+2=2

Hence, we have a=1, b=2,c=-2,d=0

Matrix X is \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -2\\ 2 & 0 \end{bmatrix}.

Question 12. If A and B are square matrices of the same order such that AB = BA, then prove by induction that AB^n = B^n A. Further, prove that (AB)^n = A^n B^nfor all n \in N.

Answer:

A and B are square matrices of the same order such that AB = BA,

To prove : AB^n = B^n A, n \in N

For n=1, we have AB^1 = B^1 A

Thus, the result is true for n=1.

Let the result be true for n=k,then we have AB^k = B^k A


Now, taking n=k+1 , we have AB^{k+1} = AB^k .B

AB^{k+1} = (B^kA) .B

AB^{k+1} = (B^k) .AB

AB^{k+1} = (B^k) .BA

AB^{k+1} = (B^k.B) .A

AB^{k+1} = (B^{k+1}) .A

Thus, the result is true for n=k+1.

Hence, we have AB^n = B^n A, n \in N.

To prove: (AB)^n = A^n B^n

For n=1, we have (AB)^1 = A^1 B^1

Thus, the result is true for n=1.

Let the result be true for n=k,then we have (AB)^k = A^k B^k

Now, taking n=k+1 , we have (AB)^{k+1} = (A B)^k.(AB)

(AB)^{k+1} = A^k B^k.(AB)

(AB)^{k+1} = A^{K}( B^kA)B

(AB)^{k+1} = A^{K}( AB^k)B

(AB)^{k+1} = (A^{K}A)(B^kB)

(AB)^{k+1} = (A^{k+1})(B^{k+1})

Thus, the result is true for n=k+1.

Hence, we have AB^n = B^n A and (AB)^n = A^n B^nfor all n \in N.

Question 13 Choose the correct answer in the following questions:

If A = \begin{bmatrix} \alpha &\beta\\ \gamma &-\alpha \end{bmatrix} is such that A^2 = I

(A) 1 + \alpha^2 + \beta \gamma = 0

(B) 1 - \alpha^2 + \beta \gamma = 0

(C) 1 - \alpha^2 - \beta \gamma = 0

(D) 1 + \alpha^2 - \beta \gamma = 0

Answer:

A = \begin{bmatrix} \alpha &\beta\\ \gamma &-\alpha \end{bmatrix}

A^2 = I

\begin{bmatrix} \alpha &\beta\\ \gamma &-\alpha \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} \alpha &\beta\\ \gamma &-\alpha \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} 1 &0\\0&1 \end{bmatrix}

\begin{bmatrix} \alpha^{2} +\beta \gamma&\alpha \beta-\alpha \beta\\\alpha \gamma-\alpha \gamma&\beta \gamma+\alpha^{2} \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} 1 &0\\0&1 \end{bmatrix}

\begin{bmatrix} \alpha^{2} +\beta \gamma&0\\0&\beta \gamma+\alpha^{2} \end{bmatrix}= \begin{bmatrix} 1 &0\\0&1 \end{bmatrix}

Thus we obtained that

\alpha^{2} +\beta \gamma=1

\Rightarrow 1-\alpha^{2} -\beta \gamma=0

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:

If the matrix A is both symmetric and skew-symmetric, then

A'=A and A'=-A

A'=A'

\Rightarrow \, \, \, \, \, \, \, A=-A

\Rightarrow \, \, \, \, \, \, \, A+A=0

\Rightarrow \, \, \, \, \, \, \, 2A=0

\Rightarrow \, \, \, \, \, \, \, A=0

Hence, A is a zero matrix.

Option B is correct.

Question 15. If A is square matrix such that A^{2}=A, then (I + A)^3 - 7 A is equal to

(A) A
(B) I – A
(C) I
(D) 3A

Answer:

A is a square matrix such that A^{2}=A

(I + A)^3 - 7 A

=I^{3}+A^{3}+3I^{2}A+3IA^{2}-7A

=I+A^{2}.A+3A+3A^{2}-7A

=I+A.A+3A+3A-7A (Replace A^{2} by A)

=I+A^{2}+6A-7A

=I+A-A

=I

Hence, we have (I + A)^3 - 7 A=I

Option C is correct.

I have completed my 12th with arts cbse. I want to repeat my 12th with pcmb. How to become a private candidate and what are deadline to be able to appear in 2025 exam?

Hello student,

If you are planning to appear again for class 12th board exam with PCMB as a private candidate here is the right information you need:

  • No school admission needed! Register directly with CBSE. (But if you want to attend the school then you can take admission in any private school of your choice but it will be waste of money)
  • You have to appear for the 2025 12th board exams.
  • Registration for class 12th board exam starts around September 2024 (check CBSE website for exact dates).
  • Aim to register before late October to avoid extra fees.
  • Schools might not offer classes for private students, so focus on self-study or coaching.

Remember , these are tentative dates based on last year. Keep an eye on the CBSE website ( https://www.cbse.gov.in/ ) for the accurate and official announcement.

I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries then feel free to share your questions with us, we will be happy to help you.

Good luck with your studies!

I've passed my class 12th board exam from cbse in PCB in 2024. Now I'll give mathematics exam from cbse as a additional subject in 2025. However, they'll provide separate marksheet for maths. Will i be eligible for jee?? And how I'll fill the form??

Hi there,

Hope you are doing fine

Yes you are certainly eligible for giving the jee exam in the year 2025. You must pass the maths exam with at least 75% criteria as required by jee and provide the marksheet and the passing certificate while registering for the exam.


Pursuing maths as an additional subject while taking biology as your main subject does not offer any hindrance in you appearing for the jee examination. It is indeed an privilege to pursue both maths and biology as the subjects and prepare for the same.

There will be no issue in filling the form while registering for the exam as it will only require your basic details and marksheet which you can provide by attaching the marksheet of maths also. Also, a detailed roadmap is also available on the official websites on how to fill the registration form. So you can fill the form easily.


Hope this resolves your query.
