RD Sharma provides the best material for maths for CBSE students. They are exam-oriented, extremely detailed, and contain many solved examples. They are preferred even more than NCERT materials as they include more concepts. A majority of CBSE schools in the country use RD Sharma books for maths. This means that the solutions that students will learn from the material might also appear in their exams.
$Answer: 5$ $Given : A \text{ is a square matrix and }A($ adj $A)=5 I$ $Hint : \text{you must know the formula of }$A($ adj $A)$ \text{ to find the answer}$ $Solution:$ $A(a d j A)=5 I-----(1)$ We know that $A(\operatorname{adj} A)=|A| I-------(2)$ $\text{on comparing (1) and }(2)$ $|A| I=5 I$ $|A|=5$
Answer : 25 Given : A is a square matrix of order 3 and $\left | A \right |=5$ Hint : use the formula of $adj\left ( A \right )$ solution : $n=3$ & $\left | A \right |=5$ We know that $\begin{aligned} &|a d j A|=|A|^{n-1} \\ &=(5)^{3-1} \quad(n=3 \&|A|=5) \\ &=5^{2} \\ &|a d j A|=25 \end{aligned}$
Answer : $\frac{1}{10}$ Given : A is non-singular square matrix and $\left | A \right |=10$ you must know about the concept of non-singular matrix Solution : We know that $\left | A \right |^{-1}=\frac{1}{\left | A \right |}$ $\left | A \right |^{-1}=\frac{1}{10} \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \because \left ( \left | A \right |=10 \right)$
Answer : symmetric matrix Given : A is a symmetric matrix Hint : A is a symmetric matrix when $A=A^{T}$ $A^{T}$ is symmetric when $A^{T}=\left ( A^{T} \right )^{T}$ So, we do transpose of $A^{T}$ $\left ( A^{T} \right )^{T}$ $=A^{TT}$ $=A$ $=A^{T}$$\left ( A=A^{T} \right )$ Hence, $A^{T}$ is a symmetric matrix $\text { [e.g. } \left.\left[\begin{array}{ll} 1 & 2 \\ 2 & 1 \end{array}\right]^{\top}=\left[\begin{array}{ll} 1 & 2 \\ 2 & 1 \end{array}\right]\right]$
Answer : $2A$ Given : $n=3$ & $\left | A \right |=2$ Hint : use the formula of $adj\left ( adjA \right )$ Solution : We know that $adj\left ( adjA \right )=\left | A \right |^{n-2}A$ $=\left ( 2 \right )^{3-2}A\left ( n=3,\left | a \right |=2 \right )$ $adj\left ( adjA \right )=2A$
Answer : 81 Given : A is square matrix of order 3 such that $\left | A \right |=3$ Hint : use the formula of $adj\left ( adjA \right )$ Solution : $\left | A \right |=3$ $\left | adj\left ( adjA \right ) \right |=\left | A \right |^{\left ( n-1 \right )^{2}}$ $=3^{\left ( 3-1 \right )^{2}}$ (n=3) & $\left ( \left | A \right |=3 \right )$ $=3^{4}$ $\left |adj\left ( adjA \right ) \right |=81$
Answer : 4 Given : adj(2A) = K adj(A) and A is a square matrix of order 3 Hint : you must know about the concept of square matrix Solution : We know that $\begin{aligned} &\operatorname{adj}(K A)=K^{n-1} \operatorname{adj}(A) \\ &\operatorname{adj}(2 A)=2^{3-1} \operatorname{adj}(A) \quad(n=3) \\ &\operatorname{adj}(2 A)=4 a d j A \\ &K=4 \end{aligned}$
Answer : null matrix Given : A is a square matrix Hint : use the formula of $adj\left ( A^{T} \right )$ & $adj\left ( A \right )^{T}$ Solution : We know that $\begin{aligned} &\operatorname{adj}\left(A^{T}\right)=\left|A^{T}\right|\left(A^{T}\right)^{-1}\\ &\operatorname{adj}(A)^{T}=\left(|A| A^{-1}\right)^{T}\\ &\text { Now, we have }\\ &\operatorname{adj}\left(A^{T}\right)-\operatorname{adj}(A)^{T}\\ &=\left|A^{T}\right|\left(A^{T}\right)^{-1}-\left[|A| A^{-1}\right]^{T}\\ &=0 \quad \end{aligned}$$\left[\because A^{\top} \cdot A^{-\top}=1\right]$
Answer : 4 Given : n=3 and $A\left ( adjA \right )=2I$ Hint : use the formula of $\left | adjA \right |$ Solution : We know that $\begin{aligned} &A(\operatorname{adj} A)=|A| I \\ &A(\operatorname{adj} A)=2 I \\ &|A|=2 \\ &\text { Now, }|\operatorname{adj} A|=|A|^{n-1} \\ &=(2)^{3-1} \\ &=(2)^{2} \\ &=4 \end{aligned}$
Answer : Given : A is an invertible matrix and $\left | A^{-1} \right |=2$ Hint : use the relation between $\left | A^{-1} \right |$ and $\left | A \right |$ of find the answer Solution : We know that $\begin{aligned} &\left|A^{-1}\right|=\frac{1}{|A|} \\ &2=\frac{1}{|A|}\left(\left|A^{-1}\right|=2\right) \\ &|A|=\frac{1}{2} \end{aligned}$
Anawer : -11 Given : $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3 & 1 \\ 2 & -3\end{array}\right]$ Hint : find $\left | A \right |$ and then use the formula of $\left | adjA \right |$ Solution : $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3 & 1 \\ 2 & -3\end{array}\right]$ $\left | A \right |=-9-2$ =-11 Now ,$\left | adjA \right |=\left | A \right |^{n-1}$ $=\left ( -11 \right )^{2-1}$ $=-11$
Answer : 4 Given $\left | A \right |=4$ Hint : use the concept of A adj A Solution : $\left | A adj A\right |=?$ $\begin{aligned} &A(\operatorname{adj} A)=|A| I \\ &A(\operatorname{adj} A)=4 I \quad[|A|=4] \\ &|A(\operatorname{adj} A)|=|4 I| \\ &|A(\operatorname{adj} A)|=4\left[\begin{array}{lll} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array}\right] \\ &=4 \times 1 \\ &=4 \\ &|A(\operatorname{adj} A)|=4 \end{aligned}$
