Question 6. (i) If A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image069.png then verify that A’A = I. (ii) If A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image070.png then verify that A’A = I. Solution : NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image071.png Question 7. (i) Show that the matrix A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image078.png is a symmetric matrix. (ii) Show that the matrix A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image079.png is a skew symmetric matrix. Solution : (i) Given: A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image078.png Changing rows of matrix A as the columns of new matrix A’ = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image078.png = A ∴ A’ = A Therefore, by definitions of symmetric matrix, A is a symmetric matrix. (ii) Given: A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image079.png A’ = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image079.png = - NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image079.png = - A ∴ A’ = - A Therefore, by definition matrix A is a skew-symmetric matrix Question 8. For a matrix A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices verify that: (i) (A + A’) is a symmetric matrix. (ii) (A – A’) is a skew symmetric matrix. Solution : NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image085.png Question 9. Find 1/2 (A + A’) and 1/2(A – A’) when A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices Solution : NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image098.png Question 10. Express the following matrices as the sum of a symmetric and skew symmetric matrix: (i) NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image108.png (ii) NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices (iii) NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image110.png (iv) NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image111.png Solution : NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image112.png NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices (iii) NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image123.png NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image124.png (iv) NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image130.png

Choose the correct answer in Exercises 11 and 12.

Question 11. If A and B are symmetric matrices of same order, AB – BA is a: (A) Skew-symmetric matrix (B) Symmetric matrix (C) Zero matrix (D) Identity matrix Solution : Given: A and B are symmetric matrices ∴ A = A’ and B = B’ Now, (AB – BA)’ = (AB)’ – (BA)’  ∴ (AB – BA)’ = B’A’ – A’B’ [Reversal law] ∴ (AB – BA)’ = BA – AB [From eq. (i)] ∴ (AB – BA)’ = – (AB – BA) ∴  (AB – BA) is a skew matrix. Therefore, option (A) is correct. Question 12. If A = NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image069.png , then A + A’ = I, if the value of α is: (A) π/6 (B) π/3 (C) π (D) 3 π/2 Solution : NCERT Solutions for Class 12 Math Chapter 3 - Matrices /image143.png Therefore, option (B) is correct.
