hence det. A = sec2x
 det AT = sec2x

7. Answer (C)
Consider the det. B, using R1  R1 + R2 + R3

B=2 ax b y cz

using R1  R1 + R2 + R3
B = 2 det. A = 2 · 6 = 12

15. Answer (A, B)


A–1A = I  AT A = I  (AT)TAT = I  AT is orthogonal
Also, (A–1)T = (AT)–1 = (A–1)–1 = A = A
 A–1 (A–1)T = I
 A–1 is orthogonal

11
Spotlight_Advanced (2021-22)_Day-3_In-CLass Assignment_Mathematics

Next, AAT = I  |AAT| = 1  |A| |AT| = 1


 |A|2 = 1  |A| = + 1.
As Adj. A = |A| A–1 = |A| AT, we cannot say, Adj. A = AT

Also, if |A| = 1, then |A–1|  –1


16. Answer (A, C)

a b  a b  a  bc ad  db 

We have A2 = c d  c d   ac  cd bc  d 2 

As A satisfies, x2 + k = 0, A2 + kI = O

a 2  bc  k (a  d ) b 
   =O
 ( a  d )c bc  d 2  k 

 a2 + bc + k = 0 = bc + d2 + k = 0 and (a + d)b = (a + d) c = 0
As bc  0, b  0, c  0  a + d = 0  a = – d  (A)
Also, k = –(a2 + bc) = –(d2 + bc) = – ( (–ad) + bc ) = |A|  (C)
17. Answer (A, C)
R1  2R1 – R2 and R2  R2 – R3
18. Answer (A, B, C, D)

a2 b a2  b

b b 2  4b

if a = 1 then 2 + 4 b = b  b2  b2 + 3 b + 2 = 0  b =  2 or  1 ;
if a =  1 then b =  2 or  1
19. Answer (B, C, D)

f(x) = 4 sin3x
 f(x) = 12sin2x cos x

x + 3y + 2z = 6 ............(i)
x + y + 2z = 7 ............(ii)
x + 3y + 2z =  ............(iii)
(A) If  = 2, then D = 0, therefore unique solution is not possible
(B) If  = 4,  = 6
x + 3y = 6 – 2z
x + 4y = 7 – 2z
 y = 1 and x = 3 – 2z
Substituting in equation (iii)

Since Ax is orthogonal to x for every x in R3, so

Ax · x  0
 (a11x1 + a12x2 + a13x3) x1 + (a21x1 + a22x2 + a23x3)x2 + (a31x1 + a32x2 + a33x3) x3 = 0

Hence aii = 0 i and aij = – aji i  j

 Matrix A must be skew symmetric. Also order of matrix A is 3 and every skew symmetric matrix of odd
order is singular.
Hence matrix A is singular also.
(i) Clearly option (A) & (D) are correct
(ii) We have a13 = – 2, a32 = 5
 a31 = 2, a23 = – 5
Hence option (A) & (D) are correct.
(iii) As matrix A is skew symmetric so sum of all the elements of matrix A is zero, although matrix A cannot be
uniquely determined
We know that maximum number of distinct entries in a skew symmetric matrix of order n is n2 – n + 1
 For n = 3, maximum number of distinct entries = 32 – 3 + 1 = 7
As all the diagonal elements of skew symmetric matrix are zero, so trace of matrix A is also zero.
Also pair of conjugate elements of skew-symmetric matrix are additive inverse of each other.
Hence option (A), (C), (D) are true.

Here 24 matrices are possible.
Values of determinants corresponding to these matrices are as follows :

1 0 1 0 2 0
4 2 = 2 (4 matrices), 2 4 = 4 (4 matrices), 1 4 = 8 (4 matrices)

And 12 more matrices are there, values of whose determinants are –2, –4, –8.
(A) Possible non-negative values of det. (A) are 2, 4, 8.
(B) Sum of these 24 determinants is 0.

(C) Mod. (det(A)) is least


 |A|= ± 2

( n 1)3
 | adj (adj (adj (A)) | = A =±2

(D) Least value of det.(A) is –8

(A) A2 = – I
 A is of even order

(B) (I + A)n = C0 In + C1 I A + C2 I A2 + ......... + Cn I An

  = 2n – 1
(C) A2 = A and B = I – A
AB + BA + I – (I + A2 – 2A)
= AB + BA – A + 2A = AB + BA + A
= A (I – A) + (I – A) A + A

 sin2  – cos (cos – cos cos) + cos (cos cos – cos)


= – cos (– cos cos ) + cos (cos  cos )
 sin2 – cos 2 + 2 cos cos cos – cos 2 = 2cos cos cos
 sin2 = cos2 + cos 2  cos 2 + cos 2 + cos 2  = 1
