solve this problem about matrix:--

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

if [A] is a matrix, then-

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the matrix?????????

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

\[[A]=\left[\begin{matrix}1 & 0 \\ -1 & 7\end{matrix}\right]\]

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

then prove that \[A^2-8A+7I=0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its so simple

OpenStudy (anonymous):

firstly multiply A with A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YOU KNOW HOW TO MULTIPLY TWO MATRICES OR SHOULD I SHOW YOU

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

yeah K! I know this method which u r telling but my real doubt is that "isn't there a short trick method for proving it .Please tell

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2) MULTIPLY EACH ELEMENT OF MATRIX A BY 8

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

k! then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3) MULTIPLY 7 WITH EACH ELEMENT OF IDENTITY MATRIX

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THEN WHAT SUBTRACT THE MATRICES OBTAINED IN 1ST AN 2ND STEP AND ADD THE RESULTANT MATRIX WITH THAT OBTAINED IN THIRD STEP

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

k! but Here ,My real doubt is that "isn't there a short trick method for proving it" .Please tell me.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THERE IS NO SHORTCUT TO SUCH PROBLEMS

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

K! if i tell u a short trick that my sir did then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK WHICH ONE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

SO MR IF YOU KNOW THE ANSWER THEN ARE YOU TESTING OTHERS KNOWLEDGE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

SO WHATS THE METHOD

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

firstly there is a rule \[|A-\lambda I|\] put the values here

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

& get a determinant & when we solve that determinant than we get a polynomial in the form of \[\lambda\].

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

now we put A instead of lambda.& get the above result:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, latent roots are trickier way and probably the only logical way for doing this.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@nitz: All caps is considered yelling in virtual world. Please avoid using that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

WHICH CAP

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ALL UPPER CASE, all lower case.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OK

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

ok! thanx to u both but did u get it @nitz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@maheshmeghwal9: If you are not aware of it, this is due to cayley-hamilton theorem.

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

and I wanna know another short trick please tell

OpenStudy (anonymous):

YA

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

K!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

FOR YOUR INFORMATION I HAVE READ A BOOK ON MATRICES AND DETERMINANTS AN I KNOW ALL THIS CAYLEY HAMILTON THEOREM ETC. @FOOL FOR MATH

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

k! thanx to both hope I could give u both medals.

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

coz I can't do partiality.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i am sorry if you people thought i was rude extremely sorry

OpenStudy (maheshmeghwal9):

np:)
