Suppose a 3 × 3 matrix A has the real eigenvalue 2 and two complex conjugate eigenvalues. Also, suppose that det A = 50 and tr A = 8. Find the complex eigenvalues.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The solution for complex eigenvalues is λ2,3=3±4i.

Step by step solution

01

Define eigenvalue

Eigenvalues are a set of specialized scales correlated with a system of linear equations. The corresponding eigenvalue, often denoted byλ.

02

Find the complex eigenvalues

Lets consider,

λ1=2,λ2=a+bi,λ3=a-bi

Using theorem 4.5.5,

We will get,2(a2+b2)=50 and 2a+2=8.

Solve2a+2=8 for a,

2a=6a=3

Substitute a=3 into2a2+b2=50 and solve for b.

232+b2=5029+b2=509+b2=25

b2=16b=±4

So, we get the solution as role="math" localid="1659605249127" λ2=3±4i.
