Matrices And Determinants - Consistency and Solution of Simultaneous Linear Equations (Lecture-04)
Eigen Value Problem
Let $A$ be a square matrix of order $n$. If there exists a scalar $\lambda$ and an non-zero vector such that $A X=$ $\lambda X, \lambda$ is called an eigen value of $A \& X$, an eigen vector of $A$.
The homogeneous system
$(A-\lambda I) X=0$ has non trivial solutions of $|A-\lambda I|=0$
which gives a polynomial of degree $n$. This equation is called the characteristic equation of $A$ and its roots are eigen values.
Properties:
- The sum of all eigen values $=$ trace of $A=\sum\limits _{\mathrm{I}=1}^{\mathrm{n}} \mathrm{a} _{\mathrm{ii}}$
- Product of all eigen values $=|\mathrm{A}|$
- If $A$ is singular, then one of the eigen values is zero
- The eigen value of a null matrix is zero
- The eigen value of a unit matrix is unity.
- All the eigen values of a real orthogonal matrix have unit modulus i.e. $|\lambda|=1$
Cayley-Hamilton Theorem
Every square matrix A satisfies its characteristic equation $|A-\lambda I|=0$
Solution of a system of linear equation (matrix method)
Solution of the system $\hspace {2 cm}\mathrm{a} _{11} \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{a} _{12} \mathrm{y}+\mathrm{a} _{13} \mathrm{z}=\mathrm{b} _{1}$
$\hspace {3 cm}\begin{aligned} & a _{21} x+a _{22} y+a _{23} z=b _{2} \\ & a _{31} x+a _{32} y+a _{33} z=b _{3} \end{aligned} \quad \text { is given }$
by $X=A^{-1} B \quad$ where $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll}a _{11} & a _{12} & a _{13} \\ a _{21} & a _{22} & a _{23} \\ a _{31} & a _{32} & a _{33}\end{array}\right], B=\left[\begin{array}{l}b _{1} \\ b _{2} \\ b _{3}\end{array}\right]$
If $|\mathrm{A}| \neq 0$, the system is consistent and have unique solution.
If $|A|=0$, find $(\operatorname{adj} A) B$.
If $(\operatorname{adj} A) B=0$, the system has infinitely many solutions.
If (adj A) $B \neq 0$ the system is inconsistent and has no solution.
Echelon from of a matrix
A matrix A is said to be in echelon form if
i. The first non-zero element in each row is 1
ii. Every non-zero row in A precedes every zero row
iii. The number of zeroes before first non-zero element in $1^{\text {st }}, 2^{\text {nd }}, 3^{\text {rd }}, \ldots$ rows should be in increasing order.
Rank of a matrix
A non zero matrix $\mathrm{A} _{\mathrm{mxn}}$ is said to have rank $\mathrm{r}$ if at least one of its $\mathrm{rxr}$ minors is nonzero while every $(\mathrm{r}+1)$ $x(r+1)$ minor, if any, is zero. It is denoted as $\rho(A)=r$
Rank of a null matrix is zero.
Important results
$\rho(\mathrm{A})=\leq \min {\mathrm{m}, \mathrm{n}}$
$\rho\left(\mathrm{I} _{\mathrm{n}}\right)=\mathrm{n}$
If $\mathrm{A}$ is nonsingular, $\rho(A)=\mathrm{n}$ otherwise $\rho(A)<\mathrm{n}$.
Elementary operations do not change the rank of a matrix
Nullity of a matrix
For a square matrix of order $n, n-\rho(A)=n(A)$ is called the nullity of $A$ and is denoted by $N(A)$
Solution of a system by Rank method
Consider the non homogeneous system
$\left[\begin{array}{lll}a _{11} & a _{12} & a _{13} \\ a _{21} & a _{22} & a _{23} \\ a _{31} & a _{32} & a _{33}\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y \\ z\end{array}\right]=\left|\begin{array}{l}b _{1} \\ b _{2} \\ b _{2}\end{array}\right|, A X=B$
Let $r$ be the rank of coefficient matrix and $s$ be the rank of the augmented matrix
$[A B]=\left[\begin{array}{llll}a _{11} & a _{12} & a _{13} & b _{1} \\ a _{21} & a _{22} & a _{23} & b _{2} \\ a _{31} & a _{32} & a _{33} & b _{3}\end{array}\right]$
If $r=s$, the system is consistent (has one or more solutions)
If $\mathrm{r}=\mathrm{s}=3$, (no. of unknowns), then the system has unique solutions.
If $r=s=2$ (< the no. of unknowns), then the system is consistent and has infinitely many solutions.
If $\mathrm{r} \neq \mathrm{s}$, the system is inconsistent (no solution)
Note: consider the system of planes
$\mathrm{a} _{1} \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{b} _{1} \mathrm{y}+\mathrm{c} _{1} \mathrm{z}=\mathrm{d} _{1}$
$\mathrm{a} _{2} \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{b} _{2} \mathrm{y}+\mathrm{c} _{2} \mathrm{z}=\mathrm{d} _{2}$
$a _{3} x+b _{3} y+c _{3} z=d _{3}$
Let $r$ be the rank of coefficient matrix and $s$ be the rank of the augmented matrix.
If $\mathrm{r}=3, \mathrm{~s}=3$, the planes meet at a single point.
If $\mathrm{r}=2, \mathrm{~s}=2$, the planes intersect along a single straight line
If $\mathrm{r}=2, \mathrm{~s}=3$, the planes from a triangular prism
If $\mathrm{r}=1, \mathrm{~s}=2$, the planes are parallel
If $\mathrm{r}=1, \mathrm{~s}=1$, the planes are coincident.
Geometrical transformations (Rotation & Reflexions)
i. Reflection in $\mathrm{x}$-axis.
Let $\mathrm{P}^{\prime}\left(\mathrm{x}^{\prime}, \mathrm{y}^{\prime}\right)$ be the reflection of $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})$ on $\mathrm{x}$-axis
then $\mathrm{x}^{\prime}=\mathrm{x} \& \mathrm{y}^{\prime}=-\mathrm{y}$
i.e. $x^{\prime}=1 . x+0 . y$
$\mathrm{y}^{\prime}=0 . \mathrm{x}+(-1) \mathrm{y}$
i.e. $\left[\begin{array}{l}x^{\prime} \\ y^{\prime}\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \quad$ The matrix $\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1\end{array}\right]$ describes reflection of $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})$ in the $\mathrm{x}$-axis
ii. Reflection in the y-axis
Here $\mathrm{x}^{\prime}=-\mathrm{x} \& \mathrm{y}^{\prime}=\mathrm{y}$
i.e. $x^{\prime}=(-1) x+0 y$
$\quad \quad\mathrm{y}^{\prime}=0 \mathrm{x}+1 \mathrm{y}$
$\left[\begin{array}{l}x^{\prime} \\ y^{\prime}\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \quad\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$ describes reflection of $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})$ in the $\mathrm{y}$-axis
iii. Reflection through the origin
$\mathrm{x}^{\prime}=(-1) \mathrm{x}+0 \mathrm{y}$
$\mathrm{y}^{\prime}=0 \mathrm{x}+(-1) \mathrm{y}$
$\left[\begin{array}{l}x^{\prime} \\ y^{\prime}\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \quad\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1 & 0 \\ 0 & -1\end{array}\right]$ describes reflection of $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})$ through the origin
iv. Reflection in the line $y=x$
$\mathrm{x}^{\prime}=0 . \mathrm{x}+1 . \mathrm{y}$
$\mathrm{y}^{\prime}=1 . \mathrm{x}+0 . \mathrm{y}$
$\left[\begin{array}{l}x^{\prime} \\ y^{\prime}\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ll}0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \quad\left[\begin{array}{ll}0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0\end{array}\right]$ describes reflection of $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})$ in the line $\mathrm{y}=\mathrm{x}$
v. Reflection in the line $\mathrm{y}=\mathrm{x} \tan \theta($ or $\mathrm{y}=\mathrm{mx})$
$\mathrm{x}^{\prime}=\mathrm{x} \cos 2 \theta+\mathrm{y} \sin 2 \theta$
$\mathrm{y}^{\prime}=\mathrm{x} \sin 2 \theta+\mathrm{y}(-\cos 2 \theta) \quad\left(\because \quad \mathrm{O}^{\prime}\right.$ is the mid point of $\left.\mathrm{P} \& \mathrm{P}^{\prime}\right)$
$\left[\begin{array}{l}x^{\prime} \\ y^{\prime}\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}\cos 2 \theta & \sin 2 \theta \\ \sin 2 \theta & -\cos 2 \theta\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \quad\left[\begin{array}{cc}\cos 2 \theta & \sin 2 \theta \\ \sin 2 \theta & -\cos 2 \theta\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}\dfrac{1-\mathrm{m}^{2}}{1+\mathrm{m}^{2}} & \dfrac{2 \mathrm{~m}}{1+\mathrm{m}^{2}} \\ \dfrac{2 \mathrm{~m}}{1+\mathrm{m}^{2}} & \dfrac{-\left(1-\mathrm{m}^{2}\right)}{1+\mathrm{m}^{2}}\end{array}\right]$ describe reflection of $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{x}, \mathrm{y})$ in the line
$\mathrm{y}=\mathrm{x} \tan \alpha . \quad($ or $\mathrm{y}=\mathrm{mx})$
vi. Rotation through an angle $\theta$.
$\mathrm{OP}=\mathrm{OP}^{\prime}=\mathrm{r}$
Let $\mathrm{OP}$ rotate through an angle $\theta$ in anticlockwise direction.
$\mathrm{x}^{\prime}=\mathrm{x} \cos \theta-\mathrm{y} \sin \theta$
$\mathrm{y}^{\prime}=\mathrm{x} \sin \theta+\mathrm{y} \cos \theta$
$\left[\begin{array}{l}x^{\prime} \\ y^{\prime}\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}\cos \theta & -\sin \theta \\ \sin \theta & \cos \theta\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}x \\ y\end{array}\right]$
$\therefore \quad\left[\begin{array}{cc}\cos \theta & -\sin \theta \\ \sin \theta & \cos \theta\end{array}\right]$ describes a rotation of a line segment through an angle $\theta$.
Solved Examples:
1. If $\mathrm{A}=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 1 \\ 0 & -2 & 4\end{array}\right]$ and $\mathrm{I}=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right]$ and $\mathrm{A}^{-1}=\dfrac{1}{6}\left(\mathrm{~A}^{2}-\mathrm{cA}+\mathrm{dI}\right)$, then $\mathrm{c}$ and $\mathrm{d}$ are
(a) $-6,-11$
(b) 6,11
(c) $-6,11$
(d) $6,-11$
Show Answer
Solution: The characteristic equation is $|A-\lambda I|=0$
$\begin{aligned} & \quad\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 1-\lambda & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1-\lambda & 1 \\ 0 & -2 & 4-\lambda \end{array}\right|=0 \\ \\ & \Rightarrow \quad \lambda^{3}-6 \lambda^{2}+11 \lambda-6=0 \end{aligned}$
$\therefore \quad$ By Cayley’s Hamilton Theorem
$\mathrm{A}^{3}-6 \mathrm{~A}^{2}+11 \mathrm{~A}-6 \mathrm{I}=0$
$\Rightarrow \mathrm{A}^{-1} \mathrm{~A}^{3}-6 \mathrm{~A}^{-1} \mathrm{~A}^{2}+11 \mathrm{~A}^{-1} \mathrm{~A}=6 \mathrm{~A}^{-1} \mathrm{I}$
$\Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{A}^{2}-6 \mathrm{~A}+11 \mathrm{I}=6 \mathrm{~A}^{-1}$
$\Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{c}=6, \mathrm{~d}=11$
Answer: b
2. If $\mathrm{A}=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2 \\ 3 & 4\end{array}\right]$, then $\mathrm{A}^{4}-5 \mathrm{~A}^{3}-\mathrm{A}^{2}-4 \mathrm{~A}-\mathrm{I}=$
(a) 0
(b) I
(c) A
(d) $\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{I}$
Show Answer
Solution: The characteristic equation is $\left|\begin{array}{cc}1-\lambda & 2 \ 3 & 4-\lambda\end{array}\right|=0$
$\begin{array}{ll} \Rightarrow & \lambda^{2}-5 \lambda-2=0 \\ \therefore & \mathrm{A}^{2}-5 \mathrm{~A}-2 \mathrm{I}=0 \\ \Rightarrow & \mathrm{A}^{3}=5 \mathrm{~A}^{2}+2 \mathrm{IA} \\ \Rightarrow & \mathrm{A}^{4}=5 \mathrm{~A}^{3}+2 \mathrm{IA}^{2} \\ \therefore & \mathrm{A}^{4}-5 \mathrm{~A}^{3}-\mathrm{A}^{2}=\mathrm{A}^{2}=5 \mathrm{~A}+2 \mathrm{I} \\ & \mathrm{A}^{4}-5 \mathrm{~A}^{3}-\mathrm{A}^{2}-4 \mathrm{~A}-\mathrm{I}=\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{I} \end{array}$

(a) $\dfrac{\mathrm{A}}{4}$
(b) $\dfrac{\mathrm{A}}{8}$
(c) $\dfrac{\mathrm{I}}{4}$
(d) $\dfrac{\mathrm{I}}{8}$
Show Answer
Solution: The characteristic equation is
$\begin{array}{ll} & \left|\begin{array}{cc} -1-\lambda & \dfrac{3}{2} \\ \dfrac{-1}{2} & \dfrac{1}{2}-\lambda \end{array}\right|=0 \\ \Rightarrow & \lambda^{2}+\dfrac{\lambda}{2}+\dfrac{1}{4}=0 \\ \Rightarrow & \mathrm{A}^{2}+\dfrac{\mathrm{A}}{2}+\dfrac{\mathrm{I}}{4}=0 \text { gives } \mathrm{A}^{2}=\dfrac{-\mathrm{A}}{2}-\dfrac{\mathrm{I}}{4} \\ \therefore & \mathrm{A}^{3}=\dfrac{-\mathrm{A}^{2}}{2}-\dfrac{\mathrm{A}}{4}=\dfrac{-1}{2}\left(\dfrac{-\mathrm{A}}{2}-\dfrac{\mathrm{I}}{4}\right)-\dfrac{\mathrm{A}}{4} \end{array}$
$=\dfrac{\mathrm{A}}{4}+\dfrac{\mathrm{I}}{8}-\dfrac{\mathrm{A}}{4}=\dfrac{\mathrm{I}}{8}$
Answer: d
4. The number of values of $k$ for which the system of equations $(k+1) x+8 y=4 k, k x+(k+3) y=3 k-1$ has infinitely many solutions
(a) 0
(b) 1
(c) 2
(d) Infinite
Show Answer
Solution: $\quad \Delta=0 \Rightarrow\left|\begin{array}{cc}\mathrm{k}+1 & 8 \ \mathrm{k} & \mathrm{k}+3\end{array}\right|=0$ gives $\mathrm{k}^{2}-4 \mathrm{k}+3=0$
$\therefore \mathrm{k}=1,3$
Now put $\mathrm{k}=3 \Rightarrow 4 \mathrm{x}+8 \mathrm{y}=12,3 \mathrm{x}+6 \mathrm{y}=8$
$\therefore \quad \mathrm{x}+2 \mathrm{y}=3 \neq \dfrac{8}{3}$
$\therefore \quad$ No solution
Hence $\mathrm{k}=1$ gives infinite solutions

Show Answer
Solution: $\left|\begin{array}{ccc}1 & -\mathrm{k} & -1 \\ \mathrm{k} & -1 & -1 \\ 1 & 1 & -1\end{array}\right|=0$
$\Rightarrow \quad \mathrm{k}^{2}-1=0$
gives $\mathrm{k}= \pm 1$
Answer: b, c
6. If the system of equations $x+2 a y+a z=0, x+3 b y+b z=0$ and $x+4 c y+c z=0$ has a non-zero solution, then $a, b, c$ are in

$\Rightarrow \quad-\mathrm{bc}-2 \mathrm{a}(\mathrm{c}-\mathrm{b})+\mathrm{a}(4 \mathrm{c}-3 \mathrm{~b})=0$ Gives $2 \mathrm{ac}=\mathrm{ab}+\mathrm{bc}$
$\Rightarrow \quad \dfrac{2}{b}=\dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{1}{c}$ gives $a, b, c$ in HP
Answer: c
7. The system of equations

$\mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}+\alpha \mathrm{z}=\alpha-1$
(a) -2 or 1
(b) -2
(c) 1
(d) -1
Show Answer
Solution:
$\left|\begin{array}{lll}\alpha & 1 & 1 \\ 1 & \alpha & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & \alpha\end{array}\right|=0 \Rightarrow \alpha^{3}-3 \alpha+2=0$
$(\alpha-1)^{2}(\alpha+2)=0$
gives $\alpha=1,-2$
If $\alpha=1, \Rightarrow \mathrm{x}+\mathrm{y}+\mathrm{z}=0$ $\hspace {2 cm}$ gives infinite solutions
$\therefore \quad \alpha=-2$
