Practice Quiz
Correct Answer: 672
Explanation:
Let A = $\left[ {\matrix{
{{a_{11}}} & {{a_{12}}} & {{a_{13}}} \cr
{{a_{21}}} & {{a_{22}}} & {{a_{23}}} \cr
{{a_{31}}} & {{a_{32}}} & {{a_{33}}} \cr
} } \right]$
$ \therefore $ AT = $\left[ {\matrix{
{{a_{11}}} & {{a_{21}}} & {{a_{31}}} \cr
{{a_{12}}} & {{a_{22}}} & {{a_{32}}} \cr
{{a_{13}}} & {{a_{23}}} & {{a_{33}}} \cr
} } \right]$
diagonal elements of AAT
are $a_{11}^2 + a_{12}^2 + a_{13}^2$
, $a_{21}^2 + a_{22}^2 + a_{23}^2$
, $a_{31}^2 + a_{32}^2 + a_{33}^2$
Given Sum = ($a_{11}^2 + a_{12}^2 + a_{13}^2$) + ($a_{21}^2 + a_{22}^2 + a_{23}^2$) + ($a_{31}^2 + a_{32}^2 + a_{33}^2$) = 3
This is only possible when three enteries must be either 1 or – 1 and all other six enteries are 0.
$ \therefore $ Number of matrices = 9 C3 $ \times $ 2 $ \times $ 2 $ \times $ 2

If the system of linear equations,

x + 2y + 3z = 10
3x + 2y + $\lambda $z = $\mu $
has more than two solutions, then $\mu $ - $\lambda $2
is equal to ______.
Show Answer
Practice Quiz
Correct Answer: 13
Explanation:
Given system of equation more than
2 solutions.
Hence system of equation has infinite many
solution.
$ \therefore $ $\Delta $ = $\Delta $1 = $\Delta $2 = $\Delta $3 = 0
$\Delta $ = $\left| {\matrix{
1 & 1 & 1 \cr
1 & 2 & 3 \cr
3 & 2 & \lambda \cr
} } \right|$ = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 1(2λ – 6) – 1(λ – 9) + 1(– 4) = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 2λ – 6 – λ + 9 – 4 = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ λ = 1
$\Delta $1 = $\left| {\matrix{
6 & 1 & 1 \cr
{10} & 2 & 3 \cr
\mu & 2 & \lambda \cr
} } \right|$ = 0
6(2λ – 6) – 1(10λ – 3μ) + 1(20 – 2μ) = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 12λ – 36 – 10λ + 3μ + 20 – 2μ = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 2λ + μ = 16
$ \Rightarrow $ 2 + μ = 16
$ \Rightarrow $ $\mu $ = 14
$ \therefore $ $\mu $ - $\lambda $2 = 14 - 1 = 13

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
$A = \left[ {\matrix{
{\cos \theta } & {\sin \theta } \cr
{ - \sin \theta } & {\cos \theta } \cr
} } \right]$
A2 = $\left[ {\matrix{
{\cos \theta } & {\sin \theta } \cr
{ - \sin \theta } & {\cos \theta } \cr
} } \right]$$\left[ {\matrix{
{\cos \theta } & {\sin \theta } \cr
{ - \sin \theta } & {\cos \theta } \cr
} } \right]$
$ \Rightarrow $ A2 = $\left[ {\matrix{
{\cos 2\theta } & {\sin 2\theta } \cr
{ - \sin 2\theta } & {\cos 2\theta } \cr
} } \right]$
Similarly, An = $\left[ {\matrix{
{\cos n\theta } & {\sin n\theta } \cr
{ - \sin n\theta } & {\cos n\theta } \cr
} } \right]$
$ \therefore $ B = A + A4
= $\left[ {\matrix{
{\cos \theta } & {\sin \theta } \cr
{ - \sin \theta } & {\cos \theta } \cr
} } \right]$ + $\left[ {\matrix{
{\cos 4\theta } & {\sin 4\theta } \cr
{ - \sin 4\theta } & {\cos 4\theta } \cr
} } \right]$
= $\left[ {\matrix{
{\cos 4\theta + \cos \theta } & {\sin 4\theta + \sin \theta } \cr
{ - \sin 4\theta - \sin \theta } & {\cos 4\theta + \cos \theta } \cr
} } \right]$
detB = (cos4$\theta $ + cos$\theta $)2
+ (sin4$\theta $ + sin$\theta $)2
= cos2 4$\theta $ + cos2 $\theta $ + 2cos4$\theta $ cos$\theta $
+ sin2 4$\theta $ + sin2$\theta $ + 2sin4$\theta $ –sin$\theta $
= 2 + 2 ( cos4$\theta $ cos$\theta $ + sin4$\theta $ sin$\theta $)
$ \Rightarrow $ detB = 2 + 2 cos3$\theta $
at $\theta $ = ${\pi \over 5}$
detB = 2 + 2cos ${{3\pi } \over 5}$
= 2(1 - sin18)
= 2(1 - ${{\sqrt 5 - 1} \over 4}$)
= 2$\left( {{{5 - \sqrt 5 } \over 4}} \right)$
= ${{{5 - \sqrt 5 } \over 2}}$ $ \simeq $ 1.385
$ \therefore $ detB $ \in $ (1, 2)

Putting value of ${{a_5}}$ and ${{a_6}}$ in equation (6), we get
${{a_4}}$ = -1
Putting value of ${{a_8}}$ and ${{a_9}}$ in equation (6), we get

$ \Rightarrow $ ${1 \over {| \pm 3A|}} = \mu $
$ \Rightarrow $ ${1 \over {{{\left( { \pm 3} \right)}^3}\left| A \right|}} = \mu $ [As |KA| = Kn |A|] $ \Rightarrow {1 \over {( \pm 27)|A|}} = \mu $ $ \Rightarrow \mu = {1 \over {( \pm 27)( \pm 3)}} = \pm {1 \over {81}}$ $ \therefore $ $(|\lambda |,\,\mu ) = \left( {3,\, \pm {1 \over {81}}} \right)$ Here correct option will be $\left( {3,\,{1 \over {81}}} \right)$

Show Answer

Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Given,
${a^3} + {b^3} + {c^3} = 2$
${A^T}A = I$
$ \Rightarrow \left[ {\matrix{
a & b & c \cr
b & c & a \cr
c & a & b \cr
} } \right]\left[ {\matrix{
a & b & c \cr

1 & 0 & 0 \cr
0 & 1 & 0 \cr
0 & 0 & 1 \cr
} } \right]$
$ \Rightarrow {a^2} + {b^2} + {c^2} = 1$
and ab + bc + ca = 0
Now (a + b + c)2 = 1
$ \Rightarrow (a + b + c) = \pm 1$
So, ${a^3} + {b^3} + {c^3} - 3abc$
$ \Rightarrow (a + b + c)\left( {{a^2} + {b^2} + {c^2} - ab - bc - ca} \right)$
$ \Rightarrow \pm 1(1 - 0) = \pm 1$ $ \therefore 2 - 3abc = \pm 1$
$ \Rightarrow 3abc = 2 \pm 1 = 3,1$
$ \Rightarrow abc = 1,{1 \over 3}$

Explanation:
Let $X = \left[ {\matrix{

PX = O
$\left[ {\matrix{

x + 2y + z = 0........(1)
-2x + 3y – 4z = 0....(2)
x + 9y - z = 0..........(3)
from (1) & (3)
$ \Rightarrow $ 2x+11y =0
from (1) & (2)
$ \Rightarrow $ 2x + 11y = 0
from (2) & (3)
–6x –33y = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 2x +11y = 0
putting value of x in (1), we get
–7y + 2z = 0
Now ${\left( {{{11y} \over 2}} \right)^2} + {y^2} + {\left( {{{7y} \over 2}} \right)^2} = 1$
y2 (121 + 1 + 49) = 4
y2 (171) = 4
$y = \pm {2 \over {\sqrt {171} }}$
$ \Rightarrow x = \pm {7 \over {\sqrt {171} }}$
$ \Rightarrow z = \pm {{11} \over {\sqrt {171} }}$
$ \therefore $ So, there are 2 solution set of (x, y, z)

Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
For no solution :
$\Delta $ = 0 and $\Delta $1 /$\Delta $2 /$\Delta $3 $ \ne $ 0
$\Delta $ = $\left| {\matrix{
2 & { - 1} & 2 \cr
1 & { - 2} & \lambda \cr
1 & \lambda & 1 \cr
} } \right|$ = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 2(–2 – $\lambda $2 ) + 1 (1 – $\lambda $) + 2($\lambda $ + 2) = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ –2$\lambda $2
+ $\lambda $ + 1 = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ $\lambda $ = 1, $ - {1 \over 2}$
When $\lambda $ = 1
2x – y + 2z = 2 ...(1)
x – 2y + z = –4 ...(2)
x + y + z = 4 ...(3)
Adding (2) and (3), we get
2x – y + 2z = 0 (contradiction) hence no solution.
$ \therefore $ $\lambda $ = 1 belongs to set S.
When $\lambda $ = $ - {1 \over 2}$
2x – y + 2z = 2 ...(1)
x – 2y $ - {1 \over 2}$z
= –4 ...(2)
x $ - {1 \over 2}$y
+ z = 4 ...(3)
(1) and (3) contradict each other, hence no
solution.
$ \therefore $ $\lambda $ = $ - {1 \over 2}$ belongs to set S.

If the system of linear equations
2x + 2ay + az = 0
2x + 3by + bz = 0
2x + 4cy + cz = 0,
where a, b, c $ \in $ R are non-zero distinct; has a non-zero solution, then:
A.
${1 \over a},{1 \over b},{1 \over c}$ are in A.P.
Show Answer
Practice Quiz
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
For non-zero solution
$\left| {\matrix{
2 & {2a} & a \cr
2 & {3b} & b \cr
2 & {4c} & c \cr
} } \right| = 0$
$ \Rightarrow $ $\left| {\matrix{
1 & {2a} & a \cr
0 & {3b - 2a} & {b - a} \cr
0 & {4c - 2a} & {c - a} \cr
} } \right| = 0$
$ \Rightarrow $ (3b – 2a) (c –a) – (b – a) (4c – 2a) = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 2ac = bc + ab
$ \Rightarrow $ ${2 \over b} = {1 \over a} + {1 \over c}$
$ \therefore $ ${1 \over a},{1 \over b},{1 \over c}$ are in A.P.

Explanation:
Let a square matrix 'A' of order 2 $ \times $ 2, such that tr (A) = 3, is $A = \left[ {\matrix{
x & y \cr
z & {3 - x} \cr
} } \right]$ So, ${A^2} = \left[ {\matrix{
x & y \cr
z & {3 - x} \cr
} } \right]\left[ {\matrix{
x & y \cr
z & {3 - x} \cr
} } \right]$ $ = \left[ {\matrix{
{{x^2} + yz} & {xy + 3y - xy} \cr
{xz + 3z - xz} & {yz + {{(3 - x)}^2}} \cr
} } \right]$ $ \therefore $ ${A^3} = \left[ {\matrix{
{{x^2} + yz} & {3y} \cr
{ + 3z} & {yz + 9 + {x^2} - 6x} \cr
} } \right]\left[ {\matrix{
x & y \cr
z & {3 - x} \cr
} } \right]$ $ \because $ ${t_r}({A^3}) = {x^3} + xyz + 3yz + 3yz + 3yz - xyz + 27 - 9x + 3{x^2} - {x^3} - 18x + 6{x^2}$ $ = 9yz + 27 - 27x + 9{x^2} = - 18$ (given) $ \Rightarrow yz + 3 - 3x + {x^2} = - 2$ $ \Rightarrow 3x - {x^2} - yz = 5$ $ \because $ $|A|\, = \,\left[ {\matrix{

Let $a, b, c \notin\{0,1\}$. If the system of equations

B.
infinite number of solutions
D.
unique solution only when $a=b=c$
Show Answer
Practice Quiz
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
Given system of equations has a non-trivial solution
$ \begin{aligned} & \Pi_1 \equiv x+a y+a z=0 \\ & \Pi_2 \equiv b x+y+b z=0 \\ & \Pi_3 \equiv c x+c y+z=0 \end{aligned} $
It can be written as $A X=0$
Where, $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & a & a \\ b & 1 & b \\ c & c & 1\end{array}\right]$
So, the system has non-trivial solutions hence it has infinitely many solutions or unique solutions.
$ \therefore \quad|A|=0 $
Now, let the system has infinitely many solutions
So, let $y=t ; t \in \mathbf{R}$
Then from Eqs. (i) and (ii), we get
$ x+a z=-a t \Rightarrow b x+b z=-t $
Solving these, we get
$ z=\frac{t(1-a b)}{b(a-1)}, x=\frac{a}{b} t \frac{(1-b)}{(1-a)} $
Hence, if $a \neq b \neq c$, then
$ \begin{aligned} & x=\frac{a}{b} t \frac{(1-b)}{(1-a)}, y=t \\ & z=\frac{t}{b} \frac{(1-a b)}{(a-1)}, t \in \mathbf{R} \end{aligned} $
If $a=b=c$
Let $y=t_1, z=t_2, t_1, t_2 \in \mathbf{R}$
Then by Eq. (i)
$ x=-a\left(t_1+t_2\right) $
So, the system of equations has unique solution.

Show Answer

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
It is given that the matrices $A$ and $B$ are non-singular of order 3 and $|B|=k, a$ positive integer, so
$ \begin{aligned} \left|k^{-1} A^{-1}\right|=\left(k^{-1}\right)^3\left|A^{-1}\right| & =\frac{1}{k^3|A|} \\ & {\left[\because\left|A^{-1}\right|=\frac{1}{|A|}\right] } \end{aligned} $
$ \begin{gathered} =\frac{1}{|B|^3|A|} \\ \because\left|\operatorname{adj}\left(A^{-1}\right)\right|=\left|A^{-1}\right|^{3-1}=\left|A^{-1}\right|^2=\frac{1}{|A|^2} \end{gathered} $
$\left[\because|\operatorname{adj}(A)|=|A|^{n-1}\right.$, where $n$ is the order of matrix $A$ ]
Now, since it is given that $B A B^{-1}=I$
$ \begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \quad A B^{-1}=B^{-1} \\ & \therefore B A^k B^{-1}=B A^{k-1}\left(A B^{-1}\right)=B A^{k-1} B^{-1} \\ & =B A^{k-2}\left(A B^{-1}\right)=B A^{k-2} B^{-1} \\ & \therefore B A^k B^{-1}=B A B^{-1}=I \\ & \text { and }, B \frac{\operatorname{adj}(B)}{|B|}=B B^{-1}=I \end{aligned} $
Therefore, $B A^k B^{-1}=B \frac{\operatorname{adj}(B)}{|B|}$, if
$ B A B^{-1}=I $
Now, the adj $\left(\operatorname{adj}\left(A^{-1}\right)\right)$
$ =\left|A^{-1}\right|^{3-2}\left(A^{-1}\right) $
$\left[\because \operatorname{adj}(\operatorname{adj} A)=|A|^{n-2} A\right.$ where $n$ is the order of matrix $A$ ]
$ =\frac{1}{|A|}\left(A^{-1}\right) $

Explanation:
We have,
$ \begin{array}{r} 2 x+p y+6 z=8 \\ x+2 y+q z=5 \\ x+y+3 z=4 \end{array} $
Now, if we express above equation in matrix form, We have,
$ A X=B $
Where,
$ A=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 2 & p & 6 \\ 1 & 2 & q \\ 1 & 1 & 3 \end{array}\right], B=\left[\begin{array}{l} 8 \\ 5 \\ 4 \end{array}\right], X=\left[\begin{array}{l} x \\ y \\ z \end{array}\right] $
For no solution $|A|=0$
$ \begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \quad\left|\begin{array}{lll} 2 & p & 6 \\ 1 & 2 & q \\ 1 & 1 & 3 \end{array}\right|=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad 2(6-q)-p(3-q)+6(1-2)=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad 12-2 q-3 p+p q-6=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad 3 p+2 q-p q-6=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad 3 p-6+2 q-p q=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad 3(p-2)-q(p-2)=0 \\ & \Rightarrow \quad(p-2)(3-q)=0 \Rightarrow \\ & \vec{p}=2,3 \end{aligned} $
But for $p=2$ equations $2 x+p y+6 z=8$ and $x+y+3 z=4$ are same.
So, $p \neq 2, q=3$

Explanation:
$\left| {\matrix{
{1 + {{\cos }^2}\theta } & {{{\sin }^2}\theta } & {4\cos 6\theta } \cr
{{{\cos }^2}\theta } & {1 + {{\sin }^2}\theta } & {4\cos 6\theta } \cr
{{{\cos }^2}\theta } & {{{\sin }^2}\theta } & {1 + 4\cos 6\theta } \cr
} } \right| = 0$
R1 $ \to $ R1 - R2 , R2 $ \to $ R2 - R3
$ \Rightarrow \left| {\matrix{
1 & { - 1} & 0 \cr
0 & 1 & { - 1} \cr
{{{\cos }^2}\theta } & {{{\sin }^2}\theta } & {1 + 4\cos 6\theta } \cr

0 & 1 & { - 1} \cr
{{{\cos }^2}\theta } & 1 & {1 + 4\cos 6\theta } \cr
} } \right| = 0$
$ \Rightarrow 1 + 4\cos 6\theta + 1 = 0$
$ \Rightarrow 2\cos 6\theta = - 1 \Rightarrow \cos 6\theta = - {1 \over 2}$ = $\cos {{2\pi } \over 3}$
$ \Rightarrow 6\theta = 2n\pi \pm {{2\pi } \over 3}$
$ \Rightarrow \theta = {{n\pi } \over 3} \pm {\pi \over 9}\,\,\,n \in 1$
$ \Rightarrow \theta = {\pi \over 9},{{2\pi } \over 9},{{4\pi } \over 9}$

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
Given |A| + 1 = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ |A| = -1
$\left| B \right| = \left| {{A^{ - 1}}} \right| = {1 \over {\left| A \right|}} = - 1$
$\left| {\matrix{
5 & {2\alpha } & 1 \cr
0 & 2 & 1 \cr
\alpha & 3 & { - 1} \cr

$ \Rightarrow $ $ 5( - 2 - 3) + 2\alpha (\alpha ) + 1( - 2\alpha ) = - 1$
$ \Rightarrow $ $2{\alpha ^2} - 2\alpha - 24 = 0$
$ \therefore $ sum of value of $\alpha $ = ${{ - ( - 2)} \over 2} = 1$

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
$A + B = \left[ {\matrix{

5 & { - 1} \cr
} } \right] = P(say)$
Now $A = {{P + {P^T}} \over 2}\& B = {{P - {P^T}} \over 2}$
So $A = {1 \over 2}\left( {\left[ {\matrix{
2 & 3 \cr
5 & { - 1} \cr
} } \right] + \left[ {\matrix{
2 & 5 \cr
3 & { - 1} \cr
} } \right]} \right) = \left[ {\matrix{
2 & 4 \cr
4 & { - 1} \cr
} } \right]$
$B = {1 \over 2}\left( {\left[ {\matrix{
2 & 3 \cr
5 & { - 1} \cr
} } \right] - \left[ {\matrix{
2 & 5 \cr
3 & { - 1} \cr
} } \right]} \right) = \left[ {\matrix{
0 & { - 1} \cr
1 & 0 \cr

So $AB = \left( {\left[ {\matrix{

Show Answer
Practice Quiz
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
x + y + z = 5
x + 2y + 2z = 6
x + 3y + $\lambda $z = $\mu $ have infinite solution
$\Delta $ = 0, $\Delta $x = $\Delta $y = $\Delta $z = 0
$\Delta = \left| {\matrix{
1 & 1 & 1 \cr
1 & 2 & 2 \cr
1 & 3 & \lambda \cr
} } \right| = 0$
$ \Rightarrow 1(2\lambda - 6) - 1(\lambda - 2) + 1(3 - 2) = 0$
$ \Rightarrow 2\lambda - 6 - \lambda + 2 + 1 = 0$
$ \Rightarrow \lambda = 3$
Now, $\Delta x = \left| {\matrix{
5 & 1 & 1 \cr
6 & 2 & 2 \cr
\mu & 3 & 3 \cr
} } \right| = 0$, $\Delta $y = $\left| {\matrix{
1 & 5 & 1 \cr
1 & 6 & 2 \cr
1 & \mu & 3 \cr
} } \right| = 0$
$ \Rightarrow \left| {\matrix{
1 & 5 & 1 \cr
0 & 1 & 1 \cr
0 & {\mu - 5} & 2 \cr
} } \right| = 0$
$ \Rightarrow \mu = 7$
$\Delta z = \left| {\matrix{
1 & 1 & 5 \cr
1 & 2 & 6 \cr
1 & 3 & \mu \cr
} } \right| = \left| {\matrix{
1 & 1 & 5 \cr
0 & { - 1} & { - 1} \cr
0 & 2 & {\mu - 5} \cr

$ \Rightarrow 1(5 - \mu + 2) = 0$
$ \Rightarrow \mu = 7$
So, $\lambda + \mu = 10$

If the system of equations 2x + 3y – z = 0, x + ky

(x, y, z), then ${x \over y} + {y \over z} + {z \over x} + k$
is equal to :-
Show Answer
Practice Quiz
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Given 2x + 3y – z = 0,
x + ky – 2z = 0
2x – y + z = 0
For non trivial solution
$\Delta = 0 \Rightarrow \left| {\matrix{
2 & 3 & { - 1} \cr
1 & k & { - 2} \cr
2 & { - 1} & 1 \cr
} } \right| = 0$
$ \Rightarrow k = {9 \over 2}$
$ \therefore $ Equations are 2x + 3y – z = 0 ...(i)
2x – y + z = 0 ...(ii)
2x + 9y – 4z = 0 ...(iii)
By (i) – (ii) we get,
4y - 2z = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 2y = z .......(iv)
$ \Rightarrow $ ${y \over z} = {1 \over 2}$
From equation (i) and (iv)
2x + 3y - 2y = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ 2x + y = 0
$ \Rightarrow $ ${x \over y} = - {1 \over 2}$
$ \Rightarrow $ ${x \over y} \times {y \over z} = - {1 \over 2} \times {1 \over 2} = - {1 \over 4}$
$ \Rightarrow $ ${z \over x} = - 4$
$ \therefore $ ${x \over y} + {y \over z} + {z \over x} + k = {{ - 1} \over 2} + {1 \over 2} - 4 + {9 \over 2}$ = ${1 \over 2}$
