    Mathematics CH 4: Determinants

    Important Questions with Solution


    Note: Section A- Objective type questions (1-2 marks).
    Section B- Long answer type questions (4 marks)
    SECTION A

    Question 1The value of Determinant

    a) -7
    b) 7
    c) 8
    d) 10

    Ans 1: Δ =6 -0 -1

    Δ =6(3-4)-1(2-1)
    Δ = 6(-1)- 1(1) = -7.
    Hence option (a) is correct

    Question 2 Which of the following statement is true


    a) Determinant is square matrix
    b) Determinant is a number associated with a matrix
    c) Determinant is a number associated with a square matrix
    d) None of these.
    Ans 2:
    We know that Determinant is a number associated with a square matrix A = [aij] of order
    n×n where aij is (ij)th element
    Hence option (c) is correct.
    Question 3 If A is an invertible matrix then det (A-1) equals
    a) det (A)

    b)
    c) 1
    d) 0
    Ans 3: A is invertible matrix ⇒ 0

    AA-1 = I or = =1

    =1 = = det(A-1)=

    Hence option (b) is correct

    Question 4 The value of


    a) 1
    a) 0
    b) -1
    c) 2
    Ans 4: sin 30° cos 60° + cos 30° sin 60°
    =sin(30° + 60°) = sin 90° = 1.
    Hence option (a) is correct

    Question 5 If A is square matrix of order 3*3, then the value of |KA|


    a) K|A|
    b) K²|A|
    c) K3|A|
    d) 2K|A|

    Ans 5: Let A = then |A| =

    KA =

    |KA| =

    |KA| = K3 = K3 |A|

    Hence option (c) is correct.


    Question 6 If the area of a triangle is 35 square unit and vertices are (2,-6), (5, 4) and (k,4),
    then the value of k is
    a) 12,2
    b) -2,12
    c) 8,10
    d) 10,2

    Ans 6: Area of triangle =

    35= [2(4 - 4) +6(5 - k)+1(20 - 4k)]


    35*2 = 50 -10k
    70-50 = -10k
    K= -2,12
    Hence option (b) is correct
    Question 7 If A, is square matrix of order 3×3 then value of |adj A|
    a) |A|
    b) |A|²
    c) |A|³
    d) 3|A|
    Ans 7:
    ∴ we know that |adj A| = |A|n-1 here n = 3
    ∴ |adj A| = |A|²
    Hence option (b) is correct

    Question 8If = and adjoint of aij is Aij then value of Δ can be expressed as

    a) a11 A31 + a12 A32 + a13 A33


    b) a11 A11 + a12 A21 + a13 A31
    c) a21 A11 + a22 A12 + a23 A13
    d) a11 A11 + a21 A21 + a31 A31
    Ans 8: ∆ = we know that determinant is a sum of product of elements and their corresponding
    adjoints of any row or column now here elements are a11, a21, a31
    their corresponding adjoints are A11, A21, A31
    ⇒∆ = a11 A11 + a21 A21 + a31 A31
    Hence option (d) is correct
    Question 9 If points (k+1,1),(2k+1,3) and (2k+2,2k) are collinear then value of k will be
    a) 1,2
    b) 2,
    c) 2,
    d) -2,2

    Ans 9: =0

    R1 R1 – R2 and R2 R2 – R3

    =0

    -k(3-2k) + 2(-1)+0 = 0
    -3k +2k2-2 = 0
    2k2 -3k-2 = 0
    2k2 -4k+k-2 = 0
    2k(k-2)+1(k-2) =0
    K=2,-1/2
    Hence option (b) is correct
