The matrix `A=[-5-8 0 3 5 0 1 2-]`isa. idempotent matrixb. involutory matrixc. nilpotent matrixd. none of these |
Answer» `A^(2)=AxxA[(-5,-8,0),(3,5,0),(1,2,-1)]xx[(-5,-8,0),(3,5,0),(1,2,-1)]` `=[(25-24+0,40-40+0,0+0+0),(-15+15+0,-24+25+0,0+0+0),(-5+6-1,-8+10-2,0+0+1)]` `=[(1,0,0),(0,1,0),(0,0,1)]` Hence, the given matrix a is involutory. |
