If A is square matrix such that A2=I, then A−1 is equal to
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution: If A amd B are two square matrices of same order and the product AB= I, the matrix B is called inverse of matrix A.Therefore ,ifA2= I, then matrix A is the inverse of itself.
Q6.In the following case, determine whether the given planes are parallel orperpendicular, and in case they are neither, find the angles between them. 2x + y + 3z – 2 = 0 and x – 2y + 5 = 0
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution: We have , 2x + y + 3z – 2 = 0 and x – 2y + 5 = 0. Let θ be the angle between the planes , then As a1a2+b1b2+c1c2=2(1)+1(−2)+3(0)=0 Therefore , the given planes are perpendicular to each other.
Q8.The corner points of the feasible region determined by the following system of linear inequalities:2x + y ≤ 10, x + 3y ≤ 15, x, y ≥ 0 are (0, 0), (5, 0), (3, 4) and (0, 5). Let Z = px + qy, where p, q > 0. Condition on p and q so that the maximum of Z occurs at both (3, 4) and (0, 5) is
Answer : Option AExplaination / Solution: Here Z = px +qy , subject to constraints : 2x + y ≤ 10, x + 3y ≤ 15, x, y ≥ 0 As it is given that Z is maximum at ( 3 ,4 ) and ( 0, 5 ). Therefore , 3p + 4q = 0p + 5q , which gives 3p = q .
