CUET UG Mathematics Applied PYQ
If $A=\begin{bmatrix}2 & -3 \\ 3 & 5\end{bmatrix}$, then which of the following statements are correct?

B. $A^{-1}$ exists
C. A is a symmetric matrix
D. $|A|=19$
E. A is a null matrix

Choose the correct answer from the options given below.

CUET UG Mathematics Applied Previous Year PYQ CUET UG Mathematics Applied CUET UG 2022 Applied Mathematics PYQ

Solution

Given

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

1.Order of matrix = $2\times 2$
So, A is a square matrix → True

2.Determinant:

$|A|=(2)(5)-(-3)(3)$

$=10+9=19$

Since $|A|\neq 0$, therefore $A^{-1}$ exists → True

3.Transpose:

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

Since $A^T\neq A$, so A is not symmetric → False

4. $|A|=19$ → True

5. A is clearly not a null matrix → False

Correct statements: A, B, D

Let A and B be two non-zero square matrices and AB and BA both are defined. It means

CUET UG Mathematics Applied Previous Year PYQ CUET UG Mathematics Applied CUET UG 2022 Applied Mathematics PYQ

Solution

Let A be of order $m \times m$ and B be of order $n \times n$.

For AB to be defined: number of columns of A = number of rows of B
⇒ $m = n$

For BA to be defined: number of columns of B = number of rows of A
⇒ $n = m$

Hence $m = n$, so both matrices must have same order.

CUET UG Mathematics Applied Previous Year PYQ CUET UG Mathematics Applied CUET UG 2022 Applied Mathematics PYQ

Solution

A $2 \times 2$ matrix has $4$ entries.

Each entry can be either $0$ or $1$ (2 choices).

Total possible matrices
$=2^4=16$

If $A=\begin{bmatrix}x & y & z \\ 2 & u & v \\ -1 & 6 & w\end{bmatrix}$ is skew symmetric matrix, then value of $x^2+y^2+z^2+u^2+v^2+w^2$ is:





Go to Discussion
CUET UG Mathematics Applied Previous Year PYQ CUET UG Mathematics Applied CUET UG 2022 Applied Mathematics PYQ

Solution

For skew symmetric matrix,

$A^T=-A$

So diagonal elements must be zero:

$x=0,; u=0,; w=0$

Now compare off-diagonal elements:

From $(1,2)$ and $(2,1)$:

$y=-2$

From $(1,3)$ and $(3,1)$:

$z=1$

From $(2,3)$ and $(3,2)$:

$v=-6$

Now compute:

$x^2+y^2+z^2+u^2+v^2+w^2$

$=0^2+(-2)^2+1^2+0^2+(-6)^2+0^2$

$=4+1+36$

$=41$

CUET UG Mathematics Applied Previous Year PYQ CUET UG Mathematics Applied CUET UG 2022 Applied Mathematics PYQ

Solution

Transpose of $A$ is: $A'=\begin{bmatrix}\cos\alpha & -\sin\alpha \\ \sin\alpha & \cos\alpha\end{bmatrix}$ Now, $A'A=\begin{bmatrix}\cos\alpha & -\sin\alpha \\ \sin\alpha & \cos\alpha\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}\cos\alpha & \sin\alpha \\ -\sin\alpha & \cos\alpha\end{bmatrix}$ $A'A=\begin{bmatrix}\cos^2\alpha+\sin^2\alpha & 0 \\ 0 & \sin^2\alpha+\cos^2\alpha\end{bmatrix}$ Since $\sin^2\alpha+\cos^2\alpha=1$ $A'A=\begin{bmatrix}1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1\end{bmatrix}=I$
