Question 11 Mark
Let   A = $\left[\begin{array}{ccc} {1} & {\sin \theta} & {1} \\ {-\sin \theta} & {1} & {\sin \theta} \\ {-1} & {-\sin \theta} & {1} \end{array}\right]$ where $0 \leq \theta \leq 2 \pi$. Then
Answer
$A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc} {1} & {\sin \theta} & {1} \\ {-\sin \theta} & {1} & {\sin \theta} \\ {-1} & {-\sin \theta} & {1} \end{array}\right]$
|A| = 1 (1 $\times$ 1 – sin $\theta$ $\times$ (-sin $\theta$)) – sin $\theta$ (-sin $\theta$+$sin\theta$)  + 1 [(- sin $\theta)~\times (-sin \theta )-(-1)\times1]$ 
|A| = $1+sin^2\theta+sin^2\theta +1$
|A| = $2 + 2~sin^2\theta$
|A| = $2(1 + sin2\theta)$
Now, 0 $\leq$ $\theta$ $\leq$ 2$\pi$
$\Rightarrow$ sin 0 $\leq$ sin $\theta$ $\leq$ sin 2$\pi$
$\Rightarrow$ 0 $\leq$ sin2$\theta$ $\leq$ 1
$\Rightarrow$ 1 + 0 $\leq$ 1 + sin2$\theta$ $\leq$ 1 + 1
$\Rightarrow$ 2 $\leq$ 2(1 + sin2$\theta$) $\leq$ 4
$\therefore$ Det (A) $\in$ [2, 4]

Question 21 Mark
If x, y, z are non-zero real numbers, then the inverse of matrix $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll} {x} & {0} & {0} \\ {0} & {y} & {0} \\ {0} & {0} & {z} \end{array}\right]$ is 
Answer
Here, $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll} {x} & {0} & {0} \\ {0} & {y} & {0} \\ {0} & {0} & {z} \end{array}\right]$
Clearly, we can see that
$adjA$$=\left[\begin{array}{lll} {yz} & {0} & {0} \\ {0} & {xz} & {0} \\ {0} & {0} & {xy} \end{array}\right]~~and ~~~|A|=xyz$
$\therefore ~A^{-1}=\frac {adjA}{|A|}=\frac1{xyz}\left[\begin{array}{lll} {{yz}} & {0} & {0} \\ {0} & {{xz}} & {0} \\ {0} & {0} & {xy} \end{array}\right]$
$=\left[\begin{array}{lll} {x^{-1}} & {0} & {0} \\ {0} & {y^{-1}} & {0} \\ {0} & {0} & {z^{-1}} \end{array}\right]$

Question 31 Mark
If A is an invertible matrix of order 2, then det (A–1) is equal to
Answer
We know that, A-1 = $\frac{1}{|\mathrm{A}|}$ Adj (A)
So, $\left|A^{-1}\right|$ = $\left|\frac{1}{|A|} \operatorname{Adj}(A)\right|$ 
                = $\frac{1}{|A|^{n}}|\operatorname{Adj}(A)|$ 
                = $\frac{1}{|A|^{n}}|A|^{n-1}=\frac{1}{|A|^{1}}$
                $=\frac{1}{|A|^{1}}$
{since adj(A) is of order n and |Adj(A)| = |A|n-1}

Question 41 Mark
Let A be a non-singular square matrix of order 3 $\times$ 3. Then |adj A| is equal to
Answer
For a square matrix of order n$\times$n,
We know that $A.adjA=|A|I$ 
Here, n=3
$\therefore$   $|A.adjA|=|A|^n$
          $|adjA|=|A|^{n-1}$
So, $|AdjA| = |A|^{3-1} = |A|^2$

Question 51 Mark
Find adjoint of the matrix $\left|\begin{array}{ll}1 & 2 \\ 3 & 4\end{array}\right|$
Answer
Here $A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{a_{11}}}&{{a_{12}}} \\ {{a_{21}}}&{{a_{22}}} \end{array}} \right] = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&2 \\ 3&4 \end{array}} \right]$

$\Rightarrow \left| A \right| = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&2 \\ 3&4 \end{array}} \right|$

$\therefore$ A11 = Cofactor of ${a_{11}} = {\left( { - 1} \right)^2}\left( 4 \right) = 4$

A12 = Cofactor of ${a_{12}} = {\left( { - 1} \right)^3}\left( 3 \right) = - 3$

A21 = Cofactor of ${a_{21}} = {\left( { - 1} \right)^3}\left( 2 \right) = - 2$ 

A22 = Cofactor of ${a_{22}} = {\left( { - 1} \right)^4}\left( 1 \right) = 1$ 

$\therefore adjA = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{A_{11}}}&{{A_{12}}} \\ {{A_{21}}}&{{A_{22}}} \end{array}} \right|$

$= \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 4&{ - 3} \\ { - 2}&1 \end{array}} \right|$

Question 61 Mark
If  $\Delta=\left|\begin{array}{lll} {a_{11}} & {a_{12}} & {a_{13}} \\ {a_{21}} & {a_{22}} & {a_{23}} \\ {a_{31}} & {a_{32}} & {a_{33}} \end{array}\right|$ and Aij is Cofactors of aij, then value of $\Delta$ is given by
Answer
$\Delta=\left|\begin{array}{lll} {a_{11}} & {a_{12}} & {a_{13}} \\ {a_{21}} & {a_{22}} & {a_{23}} \\ {a_{31}} & {a_{32}} & {a_{33}} \end{array}\right|$
Expanding along Column 1
$\Delta=(-1)^{1+1} \times a_{11} \times\left|\begin{array}{ll} {a_{22}} & {a_{23}} \\ {a_{32}} & {a_{33}} \end{array}\right|$ + $(-1)^{2+1} \times a_{21} \times\left|\begin{array}{ll} {a_{12}} & {a_{13}} \\ {a_{32}} & {a_{33}} \end{array}\right|$ + $(-1)^{3+1} \times a_{31} \times\left|\begin{array}{ll} {a_{12}} & {a_{13}} \\ {a_{22}} & {a_{23}} \end{array}\right|$
$\Delta$ = a11A11 + a21A21 + a31A31

Question 71 Mark
If area of triangle is 35 sq units with vertices (2, -6), (5, 4) and (k, 4). Then k is
Answer
$\frac{1}{2}\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 2 & -6 & 1 \\ 5 & 4 & 1 \\ k & 4 & 1 \end{array}\right|=35$
$\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 2 & -6 & 1 \\ 5 & 4 & 1 \\ k & 4 & 1 \end{array}\right|=70$
$|2(4-4)+6(5-k)+1(20-4 k)|$ = 70
$|50-10 k|=70$
50 - 10k = $\pm$70
k = -2, 12

Question 81 Mark
If $\left|\begin{array}{cc} {x} & {2} \\ {18} & {x} \end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{cc} {6} & {2} \\ {18} & {6} \end{array}\right|$ , then x is equal to
Answer
We have $\left|\begin{array}{ll} {x} & {2} \\ {18} & {x} \end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{ll} {6} & {2} \\ {18} & {6} \end{array}\right|$
We know that determinant of A is calculated as $|A|=\left|\begin{array}{ll} {a} & {b} \\ {c} & {d} \end{array}\right|$ = ad - bc
$\Rightarrow$ x(x) – 2(18) = 6(6) – 2(18)
$\Rightarrow$ x2 - 36 = 36 – 36
$\Rightarrow$ x2 =36 – 36 + 36
$\Rightarrow$ x2 = 36
$\Rightarrow$ x = $\pm$6.

Question 91 Mark
Find values of x, if $\left|\begin{array}{ll} {2} & {3} \\ {4} & {5} \end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{cc} {x} & {3} \\ {2 x} & {5} \end{array}\right|$
Answer
We know that determinant of A is calculated as $|A|=\left|\begin{array}{ll} {a} & {b} \\ {c} & {d} \end{array}\right|$ = ad - bc
We have $\left|\begin{array}{cc} {2} & {3} \\ {4} & {5} \end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{cc} {x} & {3} \\ {2 x} & {5} \end{array}\right|$
$\Rightarrow$ 2(5) – 3(4) = x(5) – 3(2x)
$\Rightarrow$ 10 – 12 = 5x – 6x
$\Rightarrow$ -2 = -x
$\Rightarrow$ x = 2
The value of x is 2.

Answer
(2 – 20) = (2x2 – 24)
-18 = 2x$^2$– 24
-2x2 = -24 + 18
-2x2 = -6
2x2 = 6

Answer
Given: $A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&1&{ - 2} \\ 2&1&{ - 3} \\ 5&4&9 \end{array}} \right]$
$ \Rightarrow \left| A \right| = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&1&{ - 2} \\ 2&1&{ - 3} \\ 5&4&9 \end{array}} \right|$
Expanding along first row, $1\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 1&{ - 3} \\ 4&{ - 9} \end{array}} \right| - 1\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 2&{ - 3} \\ 5&{ - 9} \end{array}} \right| + \left( { - 2} \right)\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} 2&1 \\ 5&4 \end{array}} \right|$
= {-9(-12)} - {-18 - (-15)} - 2(8 - 5)
= -9 + 12 - (-18 + 15) -2(3)
= 3(-3) - 6
= 3 + 3 - 6 = 0

Answer
ATQ,
We know that a determinant of a 3 $\times$ 3 matrix is calculated as
$|A|=\left|\begin{array}{ccc} {i} & {j} & {k} \\ {a} & {b} & {c} \\ {d} & {e} & {f} \end{array}\right|=i\left|\begin{array}{cc} {b} & {c} \\ {e} & {f} \end{array}\right|-j\left|\begin{array}{cc} {a} & {c} \\ {d} & {f} \end{array}\right|+k\left|\begin{array}{cc} {a} & {b} \\ {d} & {e} \end{array}\right|$
= $2\left|\begin{array}{cc} {2} & {-1} \\ {-5} & {0} \end{array}\right|-(-1)\left|\begin{array}{cc} {0} & {-1} \\ {3} & {0} \end{array}\right|+(-2)\left|\begin{array}{cc} {0} & {2} \\ {3} & {-5} \end{array}\right|$
= 2[0 – (-1)(-5)] + 1[0 – (-1)(3)] – 2[0 – 3(2)]
= 2[0 – 5] + 1[0 + 3] – 2[-6]
= 2[-5] + 1[3] -2[-6]
= -10 + 3 + 12
= 5
The determinant of the above matrix is 5.

Question 161 Mark
Evaluate the determinant $\left|\begin{array}{cc}x^2-x+1 & x-1 \\ x+1 & x+1\end{array}\right|$
Answer
Applying $C_1\rightarrow C_1-C_2,we\ get,$

.$\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x^2} - x + 1}&{x - 1} \\ {x + 1}&{x + 1} \end{array}} \right| = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {{x^2} - 2x + 2}&{x - 1} \\ 0&{x + 1} \end{array}} \right|$$$

$= \left( {{x^2} - 2x + 2} \right).\left( {x + 1} \right) - \left( {x - 1} \right).0$

= x3 - 2x2 + 2x + x2 - 2x + 2

Question 171 Mark
Evaluate the determinant $\left|\begin{array}{cc} {\cos \theta} & {-\sin \theta} \\ {\sin \theta} & {\cos \theta} \end{array}\right|$
Answer
We know that determinant of A is calculated as $|A|=\left|\begin{array}{ll} {a} & {b} \\ {c} & {d} \end{array}\right|$ = ad - bc
Now, $\left|\begin{array}{cc} {\cos \theta} & {-\sin \theta} \\ {\sin \theta} & {\cos \theta} \end{array}\right|$
= cos $\theta$(cos $\theta$) - (-sin $\theta$)(sin $\theta$)
= cos2$\theta$ + sin2$\theta$
= 1            ... [$\because$ cos2$\theta$ + sin2$\theta$ = 1]
$\therefore$  The determinant of the above matrix is 1.
