Ex 4.4, 15 For the matrix A = [■8(1&1&1@1&2&−3@2&−1&3)] show that A3 − 6A2 + 5A + 11I = O. Hence, find A−1. Calculating A2 A2 = A.A = [■8(1&1&1@1&2&−3@2&−1&3)] [■8(1&1&1@1&2&−3@2&−1&3)] = [■8(1(1)+1(1)+1(2)&1(1)+1(2)+1(−1)&1(1)+1(−3)+1(3)@1(1)+2(1)+(−3)(2)&1(1)+2(2)+(−3)(−1)&1(1)+2(−3)+(−3)(3)@2(1)+(−1)(1)+3(2)&2(1)+(−1)(2)+3(−1)&2(1)+(−1)(−3)+3(3))] = [■8(1+1+2&1+2−1&1−3+3@1+2−6&1+4+3&1−6−9@2−1+6&2−2−3&2+3+9)] = [■8(4&2&1@−3&8&−14@7&−3&14)] Now finding A3 A3 = A2 A A3 = [■8(4&2&1@−3&8&−14@7&−3&14)] [■8(1&1&1@1&2&−3@2&−1&3)] =[■8(4(1)+2(1)+1(2)&4(1)+2(2)+1(−1)&4(1)+2(−3)+1(3)@−3(1)+8(1)+(−4)(2)&−3(1)+8(2)+(−4)(−1)&3(1)+8(−3)+(−4)(3)@7(1)+(−3)(1)+14(2)&7(1)+(−3)(2)+14(−1)&7(1)+(−3)(−3)+14(3))] = [■8(4+2+2&4+4−1&4−6+3@−3+8−8&−3+16 −4&−3−24−42@7−3+28&7−6−14&7+9+42)] = [■8(8&7&1@−23&27&−69@32&−13&58)] Now Putting value of A3 , A2 in A3 – 6A2 + 5A + 11I = [■8(8&7&1@−23&27&−69@32&−13&58)] – 6 [■8(4&2&1@−3&8&−14@7&−3&14)] + 5 [■8(1&1&1@1&2&−3@2&−1&3)] + 11 [■8(1&0&0@0&1&0@0&0&1)] = [■8(8&7&1@−23&27&−69@32&−13&58)] – [■8(6(4)&6(2)&6(1)@6(−3)&6(8)&6(−14)@6(7)&6(−3)&6(14))] + [■8(5(1)&5(1)&5(1)@5(1)&5(2)&5(−3)@5(2)&5(−1)&5(3))] + [■8(11(1)&0&0@0&11(1)&0@0&0&11(1))] = [■8(8&7&1@−23&27&−69@32&−13&58)] – [■8(24&12&6@−18&48&−84@42&−18&84)] + [■8(5&5&5@5&10&−15@10&−5&15)] + [■8(11&0&0@0&11&0@0&0&11)] = [■8(8−24+5+11&7−12+5+0&1−6+5+0@−23+18+5+0&27−48+10+11&−69+84−15+0@32−42+10+0&−13+18−5+0&58+84+15+11)] = [■8(24−24&12−12&6−6@−23+23&−48+48&84−84@−42+42&18−18&84−84)] = [■8(0&0&0@0&0&0@0&0&0)] = O Hence proved Finding A-1 A3 – 6A2 + 5A + 11I = O Post multiplying A-1 both sides (A3 – 6A2 + 5A +11I)A-1 = O A-1 A3 .A-1 – 6 A2.
