In the Exercises 17 through 26, find all matrices that commute with the given matrixA.
17. $A = [\begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{matrix}]$ $A = [\begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{matrix}]$

Short Answer

Expert verified

Matrix $[\begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{matrix}]$ is commute with all the matrices of the form. $[\begin{matrix} a & 0 \\ 0 & d \end{matrix}]$

Step by step solution

Assuming the matrix

Let the given matrix. $A = [\begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{matrix}]$

Let the matrix commute with matrix A of the form, $B = [\begin{matrix} a & c \\ b & d \end{matrix}]$ where $a, b, c, d$ are constants.

Commutative matrix

Now since the multiplication of matrix A and B commute, then. $A B = B A$

$A B = [\begin{matrix} a & c \\ 2 b & 2 d \end{matrix}]$

and $B A = [\begin{matrix} a & 2 c \\ b & 2 d \end{matrix}]$

Now,

$\begin{array}{l} A B = B A \\ 鈬� [\begin{matrix} a & c \\ 2 b & 2 d \end{matrix}] = [\begin{matrix} a & 2 c \\ b & 2 d \end{matrix}] \end{array}$

On equating the matrix we get equations

$\begin{matrix} a = a \\ c = 2 c \\ 2 b = b \\ 2 d = 2 d \end{matrix}$

On solving these equations, we get,

$a = a, b = 0, c = 0, d = d$

Hence, Matrix $[\begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{matrix}]$ is commute with the all matrix of the form . $[\begin{matrix} a & 0 \\ 0 & d \end{matrix}]$

Hence, the matrix $[\begin{matrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{matrix}]$ is commute with the all matrix of the form. $[\begin{matrix} a & 0 \\ 0 & d \end{matrix}]$
