If A and B are square matrices ofthe same order such that (A + B)(A - B) = A2 - B2, then (ABA-1)2 is equal to
B2
I
A2B2
A2
If A = , then A2 + xA + yI = 0 for (x, y) is
(- 4, 1)
(- 1, 3)
(4, - 1)
(1, 3)
A.
(- 4, 1)
By Caylay-Hamilton theorem : Every square matrix satisfied its characteristic equation, then put ( = A) is in Eq. (i)
A2 - 4A + I = 0
On comparing with A2 + xA + yI = 0
x = - 4, y = 1
If lines represented by x + 3y - 6 = 0, 2x + y - 4 = 0 and kx - 3y + 1 = 0 are concurrent, then the value of k is
