Chapter 4: Q4. (page 199)

Determine whether each pair of matrices are inverses.
4. $A = [\begin{matrix} 2 & - 1 \\ 1 & - 3 \end{matrix}]$ ,width="124" height="90" role="math">B=1200-13

Short Answer

Expert verified

The given matrices are not inverse of each other.

Step by step solution

Step 1 - Definition of inverse of matrix.

A square matrix $B$ is said to be an inverse of the square matrix $A$ if $AB = BA = I$ where $I$ is an identity matrix of the same order as that of matrix $A$ or $B$

- Find the product of the given matrices.

The product of the given matrices is:

\begin{matrix} A 鈰� B = [\begin{matrix} 2 & 鈭� 1 \\ 1 & 鈭� 3 \end{matrix}] 鈰� [\begin{matrix} \frac{1}{2} & 0 \\ 0 & 鈭� \frac{1}{3} \end{matrix}] \\ = [\begin{matrix} (2) (\frac{1}{2}) + (鈭� 1) (0) & (2) (0) + (鈭� 1) (鈭� \frac{1}{3}) \\ (1) (\frac{1}{2}) + (鈭� 3) (0) & (1) (0) + (鈭� 3) (\frac{鈭� 1}{3}) \end{matrix}] \\ = [\begin{matrix} 1 + 0 & 0 + \frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{1}{2} + 0 & 0 + 1 \end{matrix}] \\ = [\begin{matrix} 1 & \frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{1}{2} & 1 \end{matrix}] \end{matrix}

As the product of the given matrices is not equal to the identity matrix, therefore the given matrices are not inverse of each other.

- Write the conclusion.

The given matrices are not inverse of each other.
