Therefore, the order of the matrix is 3 × 4. (ii) Since the order of the matrix is 3 × 4, there are 3 × 4 = 12 elements in it. (iii) a 13 = 19, a 21 = 35, a 33 = −5, a 24 = 12, a 23 = Question 2: If a matrix has 24 elements, what are the possible order it can have? What, if it has 13 elements? Answer We know that if a matrix is of the order m × n, it has mn elements. Thus, to find all the possible orders of a matrix having 24 elements, we have to find all the ordered pairs of natural numbers whose product is 24. The ordered pairs are: (1, 24), (24, 1), (2, 12), (12, 2), (3, 8), (8, 3), (4, 6), and (6, 4) Hence, the possible orders of a matrix having 24 elements are: 1 × 24, 24 × 1, 2 × 12, 12 × 2, 3 × 8, 8 × 3, 4 × 6, and 6 × 4 (1, 13) and (13, 1) are the ordered pairs of natural numbers whose product is 13. Hence, the possible orders of a matrix having 13 elements are 1 × 13 and 13 × 1. Question 3:

Exercise 3.1

Question 1:

In the matrix , write:

(i) The order of the matrix (ii) The number of elements,

(iii) Write the elements a13, a21, a33, a24, a23

Answer

(i) In the given matrix, the number of rows is 3 and the number of columns is 4.

Therefore, the order of the matrix is 3 × 4.

(ii) Since the order of the matrix is 3 × 4, there are 3 × 4 = 12 elements in it.

(iii) a13 = 19, a21 = 35, a33 = −5, a24 = 12, a23 =

Question 2:

If a matrix has 24 elements, what are the possible order it can have? What, if it has 13

elements?

Answer

We know that if a matrix is of the order m × n, it has mn elements. Thus, to find all the

possible orders of a matrix having 24 elements, we have to find all the ordered pairs of

natural numbers whose product is 24.

The ordered pairs are: (1, 24), (24, 1), (2, 12), (12, 2), (3, 8), (8, 3), (4, 6), and

(6, 4)

Hence, the possible orders of a matrix having 24 elements are:

1 × 24, 24 × 1, 2 × 12, 12 × 2, 3 × 8, 8 × 3, 4 × 6, and 6 × 4

(1, 13) and (13, 1) are the ordered pairs of natural numbers whose product is 13.

Hence, the possible orders of a matrix having 13 elements are 1 × 13 and 13 × 1.

If a matrix has 18 elements, what are the possible orders it can have? What, if it has 5

elements?

Answer

We know that if a matrix is of the order m × n, it has mn elements. Thus, to find all the

possible orders of a matrix having 18 elements, we have to find all the ordered pairs of

natural numbers whose product is 18.

The ordered pairs are: (1, 18), (18, 1), (2, 9), (9, 2), (3, 6,), and (6, 3)

Hence, the possible orders of a matrix having 18 elements are:

1 × 18, 18 × 1, 2 × 9, 9 × 2, 3 × 6, and 6 × 3

(1, 5) and (5, 1) are the ordered pairs of natural numbers whose product is 5.

Hence, the possible orders of a matrix having 5 elements are 1 × 5 and 5 × 1.

Question 5:

Question 6:

Find the value of x, y, and z from the following equation:

(i) (ii)

(iii)

Answer

(i)

As the given matrices are equal, their corresponding elements are also equal.

Comparing the corresponding elements, we get:

Page 5: Class XII Chapter 3 – Matrices Mathscbseocean.weebly.com/uploads/2/8/1/5/28152469/cmn34.pdf · Class XII Chapter 3 – Matrices Maths Page 7 of 83 Website: Email: contact@vidhyarjan.com

Head Office: 1/3-H-A-2, Street # 6, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051 (One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)

x = 1, y = 4, and z = 3

(ii)

As the given matrices are equal, their corresponding elements are also equal.

Comparing the corresponding elements, we get:

x + y = 6, xy = 8, 5 + z = 5

Now, 5 + z = 5 ⇒ z = 0

We know that:

(x − y)2 = (x + y)2 − 4xy

⇒ (x − y)2 = 36 − 32 = 4

⇒ x − y = ±2

Now, when x − y = 2 and x + y = 6, we get x = 4 and y = 2

When x − y = − 2 and x + y = 6, we get x = 2 and y = 4

∴x = 4, y = 2, and z = 0 or x = 2, y = 4, and z = 0

(iii)

As the two matrices are equal, their corresponding elements are also equal.

Comparing the corresponding elements, we get:

x + y + z = 9 … (1)

x + z = 5 … (2)

y + z = 7 … (3)

From (1) and (2), we have:

y + 5 = 9

⇒ y = 4

Then, from (3), we have:

4 + z = 7

⇒ z = 3

∴ x + z = 5

⇒ x = 2

∴ x = 2, y = 4, and z = 3

Question 7:

Find the value of a, b, c, and d from the equation:

Answer

As the two matrices are equal, their corresponding elements are also equal.

Comparing the corresponding elements, we get:

a − b = −1 … (1)

2a − b = 0 … (2)

2a + c = 5 … (3)

3c + d = 13 … (4)

From (2), we have:

b = 2a

Then, from (1), we have:

a − 2a = −1

⇒ a = 1

⇒ b = 2

Now, from (3), we have:

2 ×1 + c = 5

⇒ c = 3

From (4) we have:

3 ×3 + d = 13

⇒ 9 + d = 13 ⇒ d = 4

∴a = 1, b = 2, c = 3, and d = 4

Question 8:

(C) m = n

(D) None of these

Answer

The correct answer is C.

It is known that a given matrix is said to be a square matrix if the number of rows is

equal to the number of columns.

Therefore, is a square matrix, if m = n.

Question 9:

Which of the given values of x and y make the following pair of matrices equal

(A)

(B) Not possible to find

(C)

(D)

Answer

The correct answer is B.

It is given that

Equating the corresponding elements, we get:

Head Office: 1/3-H-A-2, Street # 6, East Azad Nagar, Delhi-110051 (One Km from ‘Welcome’ Metro Station)

We find that on comparing the corresponding elements of the two matrices, we get two

different values of x, which is not possible.

Hence, it is not possible to find the values of x and y for which the given matrices are

equal.

Question 10:

The number of all possible matrices of order 3 × 3 with each entry 0 or 1 is:

(A) 27

(B) 18

(C) 81

(D) 512

Answer

The correct answer is D.

The given matrix of the order 3 × 3 has 9 elements and each of these elements can be

either 0 or 1.

Now, each of the 9 elements can be filled in two possible ways.

Therefore, by the multiplication principle, the required number of possible matrices is 29

= 512

Question 19:

A trust fund has Rs 30,000 that must be invested in two different types of bonds. The

first bond pays 5% interest per year, and the second bond pays 7% interest per year.

Using matrix multiplication, determine how to divide Rs 30,000 among the two types of

bonds. If the trust fund must obtain an annual total interest of:

(a) Rs 1,800 (b) Rs 2,000

Answer

(a) Let Rs x be invested in the first bond. Then, the sum of money invested in the

second bond will be Rs (30000 − x).

It is given that the first bond pays 5% interest per year and the second bond pays 7%

interest per year.

Therefore, in order to obtain an annual total interest of Rs 1800, we have:

Thus, in order to obtain an annual total interest of Rs 1800, the trust fund should invest

Rs 15000 in the first bond and the remaining Rs 15000 in the second bond.

(b) Let Rs x be invested in the first bond. Then, the sum of money invested in the

second bond will be Rs (30000 − x).

Therefore, in order to obtain an annual total interest of Rs 2000, we have:

Thus, in order to obtain an annual total interest of Rs 2000, the trust fund should invest

Rs 5000 in the first bond and the remaining Rs 25000 in the second bond.

The bookshop of a particular school has 10 dozen chemistry books, 8 dozen physics

books, 10 dozen economics books. Their selling prices are Rs 80, Rs 60 and Rs 40 each

respectively. Find the total amount the bookshop will receive from selling all the books

using matrix algebra.

Answer

The bookshop has 10 dozen chemistry books, 8 dozen physics books, and 10 dozen

economics books.

The selling prices of a chemistry book, a physics book, and an economics book are

respectively given as Rs 80, Rs 60, and Rs 40.

The total amount of money that will be received from the sale of all these books can be

represented in the form of a matrix as:

Thus, the bookshop will receive Rs 20160 from the sale of all these books.

Question 21:

Assume X, Y, Z, W and P are matrices of order , and

respectively. The restriction on n, k and p so that will be defined are:

A. k = 3, p = n

B. k is arbitrary, p = 2

C. p is arbitrary, k = 3

D. k = 2, p = 3

Answer

Matrices P and Y are of the orders p × k and 3 × k respectively.

Therefore, matrix PY will be defined if k = 3. Consequently, PY will be of the order p × k.

Matrices W and Y are of the orders n × 3 and 3 × k respectively.

Since the number of columns in W is equal to the number of rows in Y, matrix WY is

well-defined and is of the order n × k.

Matrices PY and WY can be added only when their orders are the same.

However, PY is of the order p × k and WY is of the order n × k. Therefore, we must have

p = n.

Thus, k = 3 and p = n are the restrictions on n, k, and p so that will be

defined.

Question 22:

Assume X, Y, Z, W and P are matrices of order , and

respectively. If n = p, then the order of the matrix is

A p × 2 B 2 × n C n × 3 D p × n

Answer

The correct answer is B.

Matrix X is of the order 2 × n.

Therefore, matrix 7X is also of the same order.

Matrix Z is of the order 2 × p, i.e., 2 × n [Since n = p]

Therefore, matrix 5Z is also of the same order.

Now, both the matrices 7X and 5Z are of the order 2 × n.

Thus, matrix 7X − 5Z is well-defined and is of the order 2 × n.

Answer: D

We know that if A is a square matrix of order m, and if there exists another square

matrix B of the same order m, such that AB = BA = I, then B is said to be the inverse of

A. In this case, it is clear that A is the inverse of B.

Thus, matrices A and B will be inverses of each other only if AB = BA = I.

Using Cofactors of elements of second row, evaluate .

Answer

The given determinant is .

We have:

M21 =

∴A21 = cofactor of a21 = (−1)2+1 M21 = 7

M22 =

∴A22 = cofactor of a22 = (−1)2+2 M22 = 7

M23 =

∴A23 = cofactor of a23 = (−1)2+3 M23 = −7

We know that ∆ is equal to the sum of the product of the elements of the second row

with their corresponding cofactors.

MATRICES & DETERMINANTS

SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM

INTRODUCTION:

MATRIX: If mn elements can be arranged in the form of m row and n column in a

rectangular array then this arrangement is called a matrix.

Order of a matrix: A matrix having m row and n column is called a matrix of 𝑚 × 𝑛 order.

Addition and subtraction of matrices: Two matrices A and B can be added or subtracted if

they are of the same order i.e. if A and B are two matrices of order 𝑚 × 𝑛 then A ± B is also

a matrix of order m×n.

Multiplication of matrices: The product of two matrices A and B can be defined if the

number of rows of B is equal to the number of columns of A i.e. if A be an 𝑚 × 𝑛 matrix and

B be an 𝑛 × 𝑝 matrix then the product of matrices A and B is another matrix of order 𝑚 × 𝑝.

Transpose of a Matrix: If A = [aij] be an m × n matrix, then the matrix obtained by

interchanging.

the rows and columns of A is called the transpose of A. Transpose of the matrix A is

denoted by 𝐴/ 𝑜𝑟 𝐴𝑇.

Properties of transpose of the Matrices: For any matrices A and B of suitable orders, we

have

(i) AATT (𝑖𝑖)(𝐾𝐴)𝑇 = 𝐾𝐴𝑇(𝑖𝑖𝑖)(𝐴 + 𝐵)𝑇 = 𝐴𝑇 + 𝐵𝑇(𝑖𝑣)(𝐴𝐵)𝑇 = 𝐵𝑇𝐴𝑇

Symmetric Matrix: A square matrix M is said to be symmetric if 𝐴𝑇 = 𝐴

e.g.[𝑎 𝑏𝑏 𝑐

] , [𝑥 𝑦 𝑧𝑦 𝑢 𝑣𝑧 𝑣 𝑤

]

Note: there will be symmetry about the principal diagonal in Symmetric Matrix.

Skew symmetric Matrix: A square matrix M is said to be skew symmetric if 𝐴𝑇 = −𝐴

e.g.[

0 𝑒 𝑓−𝑒 0 𝑔−𝑓 −𝑔 0

]

Note: All the principal diagonal element of a skew symmetric Matrix are zero.

Determinant: For every Square Matrix we can associate a number which is called the

Determinant of the square Matrix.

Determinant of a matrix of order one

Let A = [a ] be the matrix of order 1, then determinant of A is defined to be equal to a.

Determinant of a matrix of order two

Let A= [𝑎 𝑏𝑥 𝑦

] be a Square Matrix of order2× 2 then the determinant of A is denoted by |𝐴|

and defined by |𝐴| = |𝑎 𝑏𝑥 𝑦

|= ay-bx

Page 181: Class XII Chapter 3 – Matrices Mathscbseocean.weebly.com/uploads/2/8/1/5/28152469/cmn34.pdf · Class XII Chapter 3 – Matrices Maths Page 7 of 83 Website: Email: contact@vidhyarjan.com

13

Determinant of a matrix of order 3× 𝟑: Let us consider the determinant of a square matrix

of order

3× 3, |𝐴|= |𝑎 𝑏 𝑐𝑝 𝑞 𝑟𝑥 𝑦 𝑧

|

Expansion along first row |𝐴| = 𝑎(𝑞𝑧 − 𝑦𝑟) − 𝑏(𝑝𝑧 − 𝑥𝑟) + 𝑐(𝑝𝑦 − 𝑞𝑥)

We can expand the determinant with respect to any row or any column.

Minors and cofactors:

Minor of an element𝑎𝑖𝑗of a determinant is the determinant obtained by

deleting its ith row and jth column in which element𝑎𝑖𝑗 lies. Minor of an elemen𝑎𝑖𝑗is

denoted by 𝑀𝑖𝑗.

Cofactors: cofactors of an element𝑎𝑖𝑗 𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑜𝑡𝑒𝑑 by 𝐴𝑖𝑗 and is defined by 𝐴𝑖𝑗 = (−1)𝑖+𝑗𝑀𝑖𝑗

where 𝑀𝑖𝑗 is the minor of 𝑎𝑖𝑗.

Adjoint of a Matrix: Let A = [𝛼 𝛽𝛾 𝛿

] be a Matrix of order 2 × 2

Then adj(A) = [𝜹 −𝜷

−𝜸 𝜶]

Again letA = [𝑥 𝑦 𝑧𝑝 𝑞 𝑟𝑎 𝑏 𝑐

] be a Matrix of order 3 × 3

Then adj(A) =

[ |

𝑞 𝑟𝑏 𝑐

| − |𝑝 𝑟𝑎 𝑐

| |𝑝 𝑞𝑎 𝑏

|

− |𝑦 𝑧𝑏 𝑐

| |𝑥 𝑧𝑎 𝑐

| − |𝑥 𝑦𝑎 𝑏

|

|𝑦 𝑧𝑞 𝑟| − |

𝑥 𝑧𝑝 𝑟| |

𝑥 𝑦𝑝 𝑞| ]

𝑇

=

[

𝑞𝑐 − 𝑏𝑟 −(𝑝𝑐 − 𝑎𝑟) 𝑝𝑏 − 𝑎𝑞−(𝑦𝑐 − 𝑏𝑧) 𝑥𝑐 − 𝑎𝑧 −(𝑏𝑥 − 𝑎𝑦)

𝑦𝑟 − 𝑞𝑧 −(𝑥𝑟 − 𝑝𝑧) 𝑥𝑞 − 𝑝𝑦]

𝑇

= [𝑞𝑐 − 𝑏𝑟 𝑏𝑧 − 𝑎𝑦 𝑦𝑟 − 𝑞𝑧𝑎𝑟 − 𝑝𝑐 𝑥𝑐 − 𝑎𝑧 𝑝𝑧 − 𝑥𝑟𝑝𝑏 − 𝑎𝑞 𝑎𝑦 − 𝑏𝑥 𝑥𝑞 − 𝑝𝑦

]

Inverse of a Matrix: Inverse of a Square Matrix A is defined as𝑨−𝟏 =𝒂𝒅𝒋(𝑨)

|𝑨|

Note: If A be a given Square Matrix of order n then

(i) A(adj(A) = adj(A)A=|𝑨|𝑰where I is the Identity Matrix of order n.

(ii) A square Matrix A is said to be singular and non-singular according as |𝑨| =

𝟎 𝒂𝒏𝒅 |𝑨| ≠ 𝟎

(iii) |𝒂𝒅𝒋(𝑨)|= |𝑨|𝒏−𝟏 (𝑭𝒐𝒓 𝒂 𝒔𝒒𝒖𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒓𝒊𝒙 𝒐𝒇 𝒐𝒓𝒅𝒆𝒓 𝟑 × 𝟑 |𝒂𝒅𝒋(𝑨)| = |𝑨|𝟐)

Then AB =[−245

] [1 3 −6] = [−2 −6 124 12 −245 15 −30

]

Now A1 = [−2 4 5] , B1= [13

−6]

B1A1 = [13

−6] [−2 4 5] = [

−2 4 5−6 12 1512 −24 −30

] = (AB)1

Clearly (AB)1=B1A1

Q2. If 𝑥 [23] + 𝑦 [

−11

] = [105

] then find the value of x and y.

Sol. Given 𝑥 [23] + 𝑦 [

−11

] = [105

]

[2𝑥3𝑥

] + [−𝑦𝑦 ] = [

105

]or[2𝑥 − 𝑦3𝑥 + 𝑦

] = [105

]

So 2x – y = 10 and 3x + y = 5

On solving we get x = 3 and y = -4

Q3. If F(x) = [𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 −𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥 0𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 00 0 1

] prove that F(x) F(y) = F(x+y)

Sol. Given F(x) = [𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 −𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥 0𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 00 0 1

] so F(y) = [𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 −𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦 0𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 00 0 1

]

Hence F(x) .F(y) = [𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 −𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥 0𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 00 0 1

] [𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 −𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦 0𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 00 0 1

] =

[𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦 −𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦 − 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 0𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 + 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦 −𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑦 + 𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑦 0

0 0 1]

= [cos (𝑥 + 𝑦) −sin (𝑥 + 𝑦) 0sin (𝑥 + 𝑦) cos (𝑥 + 𝑦) 0

0 0 1

]

Hence F(x) F(y) = F(x+y)

Q4. Express the given Matrix as the sum of a symmetric and skew symmetric matrix

A= [6 −2 2

−2 3 −12 −1 3

]

Sol. Here 𝐴𝑇 = [6 −2 2

−2 3 −12 −1 3

]

P = 1

2(𝐴 + 𝐴𝑇) =

1

2[12 −4 4−4 6 −24 −2 6

] = [6 −2 2

−2 3 −12 −1 3

]

Now 𝑃𝑇 = 𝑃 so P = 1

2(𝐴 + 𝐴𝑇) is a symmetric Matrix.

Also let Q = = 1

2(𝐴 − 𝐴𝑇) =

1

2[0 0 00 0 00 0 0

] = [0 0 00 0 00 0 0

]

15

𝑄𝑇 = −𝑄 Hence Q is an Skew Symmetric Matrix.

Now P + Q= [6 −2 2

−2 3 −12 −1 3

] + [0 0 00 0 00 0 0

] = [6 −2 2

−2 3 −12 −1 3

] = 𝐴

Thus A is represented as the sum of a symmetric and skew symmetric matrix.

Q5. Using the property of determinant prove that|𝑎 − 𝑏 − 𝑐 2𝑎 2𝑎

2𝑏 𝑏 − 𝑐 − 𝑎 2𝑏2𝑐 2𝑐 𝑐 − 𝑎 − 𝑏

| =

(𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐)3

Sol.Applying𝑅1 → 𝑅1 + 𝑅2 + 𝑅3 𝑤𝑒 𝑔𝑒𝑡

L.H.S = |𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐 𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐 𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐

2𝑏 𝑏 − 𝑐 − 𝑎 2𝑏2𝑐 2𝑐 𝑐 − 𝑎 − 𝑏

|

Taking common a + b + c from first Row we get

L.H.S =(a + b+ c) |1 1 12𝑏 𝑏 − 𝑐 − 𝑎 2𝑏2𝑐 2𝑐 𝑐 − 𝑎 − 𝑏

|

Now applying 𝐶2 → 𝐶2 − 𝐶1 , 𝐶3 → 𝐶3 − 𝐶1 𝑤𝑒 𝑔𝑒𝑡

L.H.S =(a + b+ c) |

1 0 02𝑏 −(𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐) 02𝑐 0 −(𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐)

|

Expanding along first Row L.H.S = (a+b+c)[(𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐)2 − 0] = (𝑎 + 𝑏 + 𝑐)3 = R.H.S

Hence proved

Q6. Solve the system of equations x + 2y – 3z = - 4, 2x + 3y + 2z = 2, 3x – 3y – 4z = 11

Sol. The given system of equation can be written as A X = B where

A = [1 2 −32 3 23 −3 −4

]𝑋 = [𝑥𝑦𝑧] 𝐵 = [

−4211

]

Now |𝐴| = |1 2 −32 3 23 −3 −4

| = −6 + 28 + 45 = 67

adj(A) = [−6 14 −1517 5 913 −8 −1

𝟔𝟕[24 + 34 + 143−56 + 10 − 8860 + 18 − 11

So[𝑥𝑦𝑧] =

Hence x = 3 , y = -2 , z = 1
