Evaluate the determinants in Exercises 1 and 2 Question 1: Solution: Question 2 (i) Solution: (ii) Solution: Question 3: If , Then show that Solution: Now, , Hence Proved Question 4: If , then show that |3A| = 27 |A| Solution: determinant of triangular matrix is product of diagonal elements: Now, This is an upper

Question 1: If and are symmetric matrices, prove that is a skew‑symmetric matrix. Solution: Because and are symmetric, their transposes equal themselves: and . Consider the transpose of : By definition, a matrix is skew‑symmetric when . Hence is skew‑symmetric. Question 2: Show that is symmetric or skew‑symmetric according as is symmetric or skew‑symmetric. Solution: Step 1 Recall

Question 1: Matrices A and B will be inverse of each other only if (A) (B) (C) , (D) Solution: Two square matrices of the same order, say and , are inverses of each other if and only if each is the multiplicative inverse of the other, i.e., This relation guarantees that both left‑ and
