Question
Assertion (A) : If $A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}l & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & m & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & n\end{array}\right)$, then
$
A^{-1}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
1 / l & 0 & 0 \\
0 & 1 / m & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 1 / n
\end{array}\right)
$
Reason $( R )$ : The inverse of a diagonal matrix is a diagonal matrix.

Answer

(b) : $\because A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}l & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & m & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & n\end{array}\right)$
$\therefore \quad|A|=l m n$ and $\operatorname{adj}(A)=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}m n & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & l n & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & l m\end{array}\right)$
$
\therefore \quad A^{-1}=\frac{\operatorname{adj} A}{|A|}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
1 / l & 0 & 0 \\
0 & 1 / m & 0 \\
0 & 0 & 1 / n
\end{array}\right)=\operatorname{diag}\left(\frac{1}{l}, \frac{1}{m}, \frac{1}{n}\right)
$
$\therefore \quad$ Assertion and reason are both correct but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
