    Tutorial 1

    March 21, 2023

    1. Find two different 2 × 2 real matrices A and B such that A2 = O, B 2 = O but A 6= O and
    B 6= O.

    2. Show that every square matrix can be written as a sum of a symmetric and an skew-symmetric
    matrix. Further, show that if A and B are symmetric, then AB is symmetric if and only if
    AB = BA. Give an example to show that if A and B are symmetric then AB need not be
    symmetric.

    3. Find conditions on the numbers a, b, c and d such that


     
    a b
    A=
    c d

    commutes with every 2 × 2 matrix.

    4. Let A and B be two skew-symmetric matrices such that AB = BA. Is the matrix AB symmet-
    ric or skew-symmetric?

    5. Show that the product of two lower triangular matrices is a lower triangular matrix (same result
    for upper triangular).

    6. Use elementary row operations to reduce the given matrix to (a) row-echelon form and (b)
    reduced
     row
     echelon form.

    7. Solve the following systems of equations using Gaussian elimination method as well as Gauss-
    Jordan elimination method:
    a. x1 + 2x2 − 3x3 = 9, 2x1 − x2 + x3 = 0, 4x1 − x2 + x3 = 4
    b. x1 − 3x2 − 2x3 = 0, −x1 + 2x2 + x3 = 0, 2x1 + 4x2 + 6x3 = 0.
    c. 2w + 3x − y + 4z = 1, 3w − x + z = 1, 3w − 4x + y − z = 2.
    d. −x1 + 3x2 − 2x3 + 4x4 = 0, 2x1 − 6x2 + x3 − 2x4 = −3, x1 − 3x2 + 4x3 − 8x4 = 2.
    e. w + x + 2y + z = 1, w − x − y + z = 0, x + y = −1, w + x + z = 2.

    8. For what values of c, k ∈ R, the following system of equations has (i) no solutions, (ii) unique
    solution and (iii) infinitely many solutions?

    x + 2y − z = 1, 2x + 3y + kz = 3, x + ky + 3z = 2.

    x + y + z = 3, x + 2y + cz = 4, 2x + 3y + 2cz = k.

    9. Let A = 1 −2 1 . Determine the reduced row echelon form of A and then solve
    1 2i −1
    the system Ax = 0.

    10. Show that x = 0 is the only solution of the system of equations Ax = 0 if and only if the rank
    of A equals the number of variables.

    11. Prove/Disprove: There exist two solutions x1 and x2 of some consistent non-homogeneous
    system Ax = b such that x1 + x2 is also a solution of Ax = b.

    12. Prove/Disprove: If tow matrices of the same order have same rank then they must be row
    equivalent.
