If
and A–1 = A’, find value of α.
Given, A = ![]()
We know that transpose of a matrix is obtained by interchanging rows with respective columns.
∴ A’ = ![]()
Inverse of a matrix A = A-1 = ![]()
Clearly |A| = ![]()
∴ |A| =
{using trigonometric identity}
Adj(A) is given by the transpose of the cofactor matrix.
∴ adj(A) = ![]()
∴ A-1 = ![]()
According to question:
A’ = A-1
∴ ![]()
As both the matrices are equal irrespective of the value of α.
∴ α can be any real number …ans
