Matrices & Determinant

As for everything else, so for a mathematical theory, beauty can be perceived but not explained..... Cayley

Introduction :
Any rectangular arrangement of numbers (real or complex) (or of real valued or complex valued
expressions) is called a matrix. If a matrix has m rows and n columns then the order of matrix is
written as m × n and we call it as order m by n
The general m × n matrix is

 a11 a12 a13 ...... a1j ..... a1n 

a a22 a23 ...... a2 j ..... a2n 
 21
..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... 
A=  
 ai1 ai2 ai3 ...... aij ...... ain 
..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... 
 
am1 am2 am3 ..... amj ..... amn 

where aij denote the element of ith row & jth column. The above matrix is usually denoted as [aij]m × n .

Notes :
(i) The elements a11, a22, a33,........ are called as diagonal elements. Their sum is called as trace
of A denoted as tr(A)

(ii) Capital letters of English alphabets are used to denote matrices.

(iii)
Order of a matrix : If a matrix has m rows and n columns, then we say that its order is "m by n",
written as "m × n".

 Matrices & Determinant

Types of Matrices :
Row matrix :
A matrix having only one row is called as row matrix (or row vector).General form of row
matrix is A = [a11, a12, a13, ...., a1n]
This is a matrix of order "1 × n" (or a row matrix of order n)

Column matrix :
A matrix having only one column is called as column matrix (or column vector).
 a11 
a 
Column matrix is in the form A =  21 
 ... 
 
am1 

This is a matrix of order "m × 1" (or a column matrix of order m)

Zero matrix :
A = [aij]m × n is called a zero matrix, if aij = 0  i & j.

0 0 0 
e.g. : (i)   (ii)  0 0 0 
0 0 0   0 0 0 

Square matrix :
A matrix in which number of rows & columns are equal is called a square matrix. The general
form of a square matrix is
 a11 a12 ....... a1n 
a a22 ........ a2n 
A =  21 which we denote as A = [aij]n.
....... ....... ....... .......

 an1 an2 ....... ann 
This is a matrix of order "n × n" (or a square matrix of order n)

Diagonal matrix :
A square matrix [aij]n is said to be a diagonal matrix if aij = 0 for i  j. (i.e., all the elements of
the square matrix other than diagonal elements are zero)

Note : Diagonal matrix of order n is denoted as Diag (a11, a22, ......ann).

 Matrices & Determinant

Unit matrix (identity matrix) :

Unit matrix is a diagonal matrix in which all the diagonal elements are unity. Unit matrix of
order 'n' is denoted by n (or ).
i.e. A = [aij]n is a unit matrix when aij = 0 for i  j & aii = 1

A = [aij]m × n is said to be upper triangular, if aij = 0 for i > j (i.e., all the elements below
the diagonal elements are zero).

e.g. : (i)  0 x y z  (ii)  0 x y 
 0 0 u v   0 0 z 

Lower triangular matrix :

A = [aij]m × n is said to be a lower triangular matrix, if aij = 0 for i < j. (i.e., all the
elements above
the diagonal elements are zero.)
a 0 0  a 0 0 0 

Comparable matrices :
Two matrices A & B are said to be comparable, if they have the same order (i.e., number of rows of A &
B are same and also the number of columns).
2 3 4  3 4 2
e.g. : (i) A =   & B =  are comparable

 3 1 2   2 3 
Equality of matrices :
Two matrices A and B are said to be equal if they are comparable and all the corresponding elements
are equal.
Let A = [aij] m × n & B = [bij]p × q
A = B iff (i) m = p, n = q

Solution : As the given matrices are equal, therefore, their corresponding elements must be equal.
Comparing the corresponding elements, we get
x+3=0 z+4=6 2y – 7 = 3y – 2
a–1=–3 0 = 2c + 2 b – 3 = 2b + 4
  a = – 2, b = – 7, c = – 1, x = – 3, y = – 5, z = 2

Multiplication of matrix by scalar :

Let  be a scalar (real or complex number) & A = [aij]m × n be a matrix. Thus the product A is
defined as A = [bij]m × n where bij = aij  i & j.

Note : If A is a scalar matrix, then A = , where  is a diagonal entry of A

Addition of matrices :
Let A and B be two matrices of same order (i.e. comparable matrices). Then A + B is defined to be.
A + B = [aij]m × n + [bij]m × n.
= [cij]m × n where cij = aij + bij  i & j.

Substraction of matrices :
Let A & B be two matrices of same order. Then A – B is defined as A + (– B) where – B is (– 1) B.

Properties of addition & scalar multiplication :

Consider all matrices of order m × n, whose elements are from a set F (F denote Q, R or C).
Let Mm × n (F) denote the set of all such matrices.
Then
(a) A  Mm × n (F) & B  Mm × n (F)  A + B  Mm × n(F)
(b) A+B=B+A
(c) (A + B) + C = A + (B + C)
(d) O = [o]m × n is the additive identity.
(e) For every A  Mm × n(F), – A is the additive inverse.
(f)  (A + B) = A + B
(g) A = A
(h) (1 + 2) A = 1A + 2A

 3 6   –5 1
Solution : We have 2A + 3X = 5B.
 3X = 5B – 2A

Let A and B be two matrices such that the number of columns of A is same as number of rows
of B. i.e., A = [aij]m × p & B = [bij]p × n.

2 3 1  1 1 2 0   1 3 7 2

Notes :
(1) The product AB is defined iff the number of columns of A is equal to the number of rows of B. A
is called as premultiplier & B is called as post multiplier. AB is defined BA is defined.
(2) In general AB  BA, even when both the products are defined.
(3) A (BC) = (AB) C, whenever it is defined.

Properties of matrix multiplication :

Consider all square matrices of order 'n'. Let Mn (F) denote the set of all square matrices of
order n. (where F is Q, R or C). Then
(a) A, B  Mn (F)  AB  Mn (F)
(b) In general AB  BA
(c) (AB) C = A(BC)
(d) n, the identity matrix of order n, is the multiplicative identity.
An = A = n A   A  Mn (F)
(e) For every non singular matrix A (i.e., |A|  0) of Mn (F) there exist a unique (particular)
matrix B  Mn (F) so that AB = n = BA. In this case we say that A & B are multiplicative
inverse of one another. In notations, we write B = A–1 or A = B–1.
(f) If  is a scalar (A) B = (AB) = A(B).
(g) A(B + C) = AB + AC   A, B, C  Mn (F)

(h) (A + B) C = AC + BC   A, B, C  Mn (F).

Notes : (1) Let A = [aij]m × n. Then An = A & m A = A, where n & m are identity matrices of order
n & m respectively.
(2) For a square matrix A, A2 denotes AA, A3 denotes AAA etc.

symmetric (where B is any square matrix whose order is same as that of A).
Solution : Case - A is symmetric    A = A

Determinant of a square matrix :

To every square matrix A = [aij] of order n, we can associate a number (real or complex) called
determinant of the square matrix.
Let A = [a]1×1 be a 1×1 matrix. Determinant A is defined as |A| = a.
e.g. A = [– 3]1×1 |A| = – 3

 Matrices & Determinant

Determinant of any order :

Let A = [aij]n be a square matrix (n > 1). Determinant of A is defined as the sum of products of elements
of any one row (or any one column) with corresponding cofactors.
 a11 a12 a13 
e.g.1 A = a21 a22 a23 

Transpose of a determinant : The transpose of a determinant is the determinant of transpose of the
corresponding matrix.

Properties of determinant :
(1) |A| = |A| for any square matrix A.
i.e. the value of a determinant remains unaltered, if the rows & columns are inter changed,
a1 b1 c1 a1 a2 a3
i.e. D = a2 b2 c 2  b1 b2 b3 = D
a3 b3 c3 c1 c 2 c3
(2) If any two rows (or columns) of a determinant be interchanged, the value of determinant is
changed in sign only.
a1 b1 c1 a2 b2 c 2
e.g. Let D1 = a2 b2 c 2 & D2 = a1 b1 c1 Then D2 = – D1
a3 b3 c 3 a3 b3 c 3

(3) Let  be a scalar. Than  |A| is obtained by multiplying any one row (or any one column)
of |A| by 
a1 b1 c1 Ka1 Kb1 Kc1
  D = a2 b2 c 2 and E = a2 b2 c2 Then E= KD
a3 b3 c 3 a3 b3 c3
(4) | AB | = | A | | B |. 
(5) |A| = n |A|, when A = [aij]n.
(6) A skew-symmetric matrix of odd order has determinant value zero.
(7) If a determinant has all the elements zero in any row or column, then its value is zero,
0 0 0
i.e. D = a2 b2 c 2 = 0.

(8) If a determinant has any two rows (or columns) identical (or proportional), then its value
is zero,
a1 b1 c1
i.e. D = a1 b1 c1 = 0.
a3 b3 c3
(9) If each element of any row (or column) can be expressed as a sum of two terms then the
determinant can be expressed as the sum of two determinants, i.e.
a1  x b1  y c1  z a1 b1 c1 x y z
a2 b2 c2  a2 b2 c 2  a2 b2 c 2
a3 b3 c3 a3 b3 c 3 a3 b3 c 3

(10) The value of a determinant is not altered by adding to the elements of any row (or column) a
constant multiple of the corresponding elements of any other row (or column),
a1 b1 c1 a1  ma2 b1  mb2 c1  mc 2
i.e. D1 = a2 b2 c 2 and D2 = a2 b2 c2 . Then D2= D1
a3 b3 c3 a3  na1 b3  nb1 c3  nc1

(11) Let A = [aij]n. The sum of the products of elements of any row with corresponding
cofactors of any other row is zero. (Similarly the sum of the products of elements of
any column with corresponding cofactors of any other column is zero).

 Matrices & Determinant

Cofactor matrix & adjoint matrix : Let A = [aij]n be a square matrix. The matrix obtained by replacing
each element of A by corresponding cofactor is called as cofactor
matrix of A, denoted as cofactor A. The transpose of cofactor matrix of
A is called as adjoint of A, denoted as adj A.
i.e. if A = [aij]n
then cofactor A = [cij]n when cij is the cofactor of aij  i & j.
Adj A = [dij]n where dij = cji  i & j.

Properties of cofactor A and adj A :

(a) A . adj A = |A| n = (adj A) A where A = [aij]n.
(b) |adj A| = |A|n – 1, where n is order of A. In particular, for 3 × 3 matrix, |adj A| = |A|2
(c) If A is a symmetric matrix, then adj A are also symmetric matrices.
(d) If A is singular, then adj A is also singular.

Example # 11 : For a 3×3 skew-symmetric matrix A, show that adj A is a symmetric matrix.

Inverse of a matrix (reciprocal matrix) :

1
Let A be a non-singular matrix. Then the matrix adj A is the multiplicative inverse of A (we call it inverse of
|A|
A) and is denoted by A–1. We have A (adj A) = |A| n = (adj A) A
 1   1 
 A  adj A  = n =  adj A  A, for A is non-singular
| A |  | A | 
1
 A–1 = adj A.
|A|
Remarks :
1. The necessary and sufficient condition for existence of inverse of A is that A is non-singular.
2. A–1 is always non-singular.
3. If A = dia (a11, a22, ....., ann) where aii  0  i, then A–1 = diag (a11– 1, a22–1, ...., ann–1).

4. (A–1) = (A)–1 for any non-singular matrix A. Also adj (A) = (adj A).
5. (A–1)–1 = A if A is non-singular.
1 –1
6. Let k be a non-zero scalar & A be a non-singular matrix. Then (kA)–1 = A .
k
1
7. |A–1| = for |A|  0.
|A|
8. Let A be a non-singular matrix. Then AB = AC  B = C & BA = CA  B= C.
9. A is non-singular and symmetric  A–1 is symmetric.
10. (AB)–1 = B–1 A–1 if A and B are non- singular.
11. In general AB = 0 does not imply A = 0 or B = 0. But if A is non-singular and AB = 0, then B = 0.
Similarly B is non-singular and AB = 0  A = 0. Therefore, AB = 0  either both are singular or one of
them is 0.

Elementary row transformation of matrix :

The following operations on a matrix are called as elementary row transformations.
(a) Interchanging two rows.
(b) Multiplications of all the elements of row by a nonzero scalar.
(c) Addition of constant multiple of a row to another row.
Note : Similar to above we have elementary column transformations also.
Remarks : Two matrices A & B are said to be equivalent if one is obtained from other using elementary
transformations. We write A  B.
Finding inverse using Elementry operations
(i) Using row transformations :
If A is a matrix such that A–1 exists, then to find A–1 using elementary row operations,
Step I : Write A = IA and

Step II : Apply a sequence of row operation on A = IA till we get, I = BA.

The matrix B will be inverse of A.
Note : In order to apply a sequence of elementary row operations on the matrix equation X = AB, we
will apply these row operations simultaneously on X and on the first matrix A of the product AB on RHS.

(ii) Using column transformations :

If A is a matrix such that A–1 exists, then to find A–1 using elementary column operations,
Step I : Write A = AI and
Step II : Apply a sequence of column operations on A = AI till we get, I = AB.
The matrix B will be inverse of A.
Note : In order to apply a sequence of elementary column operations on the matrix equation X = AB, we
will apply these row operations simultaneously on X and on the second matrix B of the product AB on
RHS.

Then the above system can be expressed in the matrix form as AX = B.
The system is said to be consistent if it has atleast one solution.

System of linear equations and matrix inverse:

If the above system consist of n equations in n unknowns, then we have AX = B where A is a square
matrix.
Results :
(1) If A is non-singular, solution is given by X = A–1B.
(2) If A is singular, (adj A) B = 0 and all the columns of A are not proportional, then the system has
infinitely many solutions.
(3) If A is singular and (adj A) B  0, then the system has no solution (we say it is inconsistent).
Homogeneous system and matrix inverse :
If the above system is homogeneous, n equations in n unknowns, then in the matrix form it is AX = O.
( in this case b1 = b2 = ....... bn = 0), where A is a square matrix.

Results :
(1) If A is non-singular, the system has only the trivial solution (zero solution) X = 0
(2) If A is singular, then the system has infinitely many solutions (including the trivial solution) and
hence it has non-trivial solutions.

Comprehension (Q. No. 1 to 3)

Let p be an odd prime number and Tp be the following set of 2 × 2 matrices :

Tp =  A    : a, b, c  {0, 1 , 2,.....,p – 1} 

1. The number of A in Tp such that A is either symmetric or skew-symmetric or both, and det (A) divisible
by p is [IIT-JEE 2010, Paper-1, (3, –1), 84]

(A) (p – 1)2 (B) 2 (p – 1) (C) (p – 1)2 + 1 (D*) 2p – 1

a b 
Sol. A=   where a, b, c  {0,1,2,....p – 1}
c a 
Case- I A is symmetric matrix   
b=c
  det(A) = a2 – b2 is divisible by p  (a – b) (a + b) is divisible by p
(a) a – b is divisible by p if a = b, then 'p' cases are possible
(p – 1)
(b) a + b is divisible by p if a + b = p, then × 2 = (p – 1) cases are possible
2
Case - II
A is skew symmetric matrix
if a = 0, b + c = 0, then det (A) = b2  b2 can never be divisible by p. So No case is possible
Total number of A is possible = 2p – 1

2. The number of A in Tp such that the trace of A is not divisible by p but det (A) is divisible by p is
[Note : The trace of matrix is the sum of its diagonal entries.] [IIT-JEE 2010, Paper-1, (3, –1), 84]
(A) (p – 1)(p2 – p + 1) (B) p3 – (p – 1)2
(C*) (p – 1) 2 (D) (p – 1)(p2 – 2)
Sol. a – bc ÷ p
2   a can be chosen in p – 1 ways (a  0)
Let a be 4 & p = 5  so a2 = 16 and hence bc should be chosen such that a2 – bc ÷ p
Now b can be chosen in p – 1 ways and c in only 1 (one be is chosen)
Explanation : If b = 1  c = 1 ; b=2c=3
b=3c=2 ; b=4c=4
Hence a can be chosen in p – 1 ways
and then b can be chosen in p – 1 ways
c can be chosen in 1 ways
so (p – 1)2

3. The number of A in Tp such that det (A) is not divisible by p is[IIT-JEE 2010, Paper-1, (3, –1), 84]
(A) 2p2 (B) p3 – 5p (C) p3 – 3p (D*) p3 – p2
Sol. As = Total cases – (a  0 and |A| is divisible by p) – (a = 0 and |A| is divisible by p)
= p3 – (p –1)2 – (2p – 1) = p3 – p2 – bc p since b & c both we coprime to p
 one of them must be zero.

if any of the terms is non-zero, then det (A) will be non-zero and all the element of that term will be unity
Now there are 6 elements remaining out of which any one can be unity.

Sol. Let us assume first that B is invertible. Then n – AB = B–1 (n – AB) B and hence
det (n – AB) = det (B–1) det (n – BA) det B = det (n – BA).
If B is not invertible, consider instead the matrix Bx = xn + B. Since det (xn + B) is a polynomial in
x, the matrices Bx are invertible for all but finitely many values of x. So we can use the first part of the
proof and conclude that det(n – ABx) = det (n – BxA) for all except finitely many values of x. But these
two determinants are polynomials in x, which are equal for infinitely many values of x, so they must
always be equal. In particular, for x = 0, det (n – AB) = det (n – BA).

Comprehension (Q. NO. 33 to 35)

Any non-zero vector, X, is said to be characteristic vector of a matrix A, if there exist a number  such
that AX = X. And then  is said to be a charactristic root of the matrix A corresponding to the
characteristic vector X and vice versa.
Also AX = X  (A – )X = 0
Since X  0  |A – | = 0
Thus every characteristic root  of a matrix A is a root of its characteristic equation.

33. Prove that the two matrices A and P–1 AP have the same characteristic roots and hence show that
square matrices AB & BA have same characteristic roots if at least one of them is invertible.
Sol. P–1AP = B
so B –  = P–1AP –  = P–1AP – P–1P = P–1(A – )P
 |B – | = |P–1| |A – ||P| = |A – |
as P–1 ABP and AB have same characteristic roots by assuming P = A we get
P–1 ABP = A–1 ABA = BA  BA and AB have same characteristic roots.

|A|
34. If q is a characteristic root of a non singular matrix A, then prove that is a characteristic root of a
q
adj A.
Sol. AX = qX  (adj A)(AX) = (adjA)(qX)  |A| X = q(adjA)X
|A|
 |A|X = q(adjA)X  (adjA)x = x
