Chapter 6: Problem 17
If \(P=\left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} & \frac{1}{2} \\ -\frac{1}{2} & \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\end{array}\right], A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 1 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]\) and \(Q=P A P^{\prime}\), then \(p^{\prime} Q^{2005} P\) is (A) \(\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 1 \\ 2005 & 1\end{array}\right]\) (B) \(\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 2005 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]\) (C) \(\left[\begin{array}{ll}1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right]\) (D) \(\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 2005 \\ 2005 & 1\end{array}\right]\)

Upper Triangular Matrix
- The determinant of an upper triangular matrix is simply the product of the diagonal elements.
- The inverse of an upper triangular matrix, if it exists, will also be upper triangular.
- When it comes to exponentiation, the structure of upper triangular matrices allows us predict the layout of resultant matrices.
