Explanation

Let determinant of matrix,

$\begin{vmatrix} c_{ 1 } & c_{ 2 } & c_{ 3 } \\ { a }_{ 1 } & { a }_{ 2 } & { a }_{ 3 } \\ { b }_{ 1 } & { b }_{ 2 } & { b }_{ 3 } \end{vmatrix}$ be

$y$

$\begin{vmatrix} c_{ 1 } & c_{ 2 } & c_{ 3 } \\ { a }_{ 1 } & { a }_{ 2 } & { a }_{ 3 } \\ { b }_{ 1 } & { b }_{ 2 } & { b }_{ 3 } \end{vmatrix}$

exchanging row

$1$ and row

$2$ , the determinant becomes

$-y$

$\begin{vmatrix} { a }_{ 1 } & { a }_{ 2 } & { a }_{ 3 } \\ c_{ 1 } & c_{ 2 } & c_{ 3 } \\ { b }_{ 1 } & { b }_{ 2 } & { b }_{ 3 } \end{vmatrix}$

exchanging row

$2$ and row

$3$ the determinant becomes

$y$

$\begin{vmatrix} { a }_{ 1 } & { a }_{ 2 } & { a }_{ 3 } \\ { b }_{ 1 } & { b }_{ 2 } & { b }_{ 3 } \\ c_{ 1 } & c_{ 2 } & c_{ 3 } \end{vmatrix}$

Now taking transpose the determinant will remain

$y$

$\begin{vmatrix} { a }_{ 1 } & b_{ 1 } & { c }_{ 1 } \\ { a }_{ 2 } & { b }_{ 2 } & { c }_{ 2 } \\ { a }_{ 3 } & b_{ 3 } & c_{ 3 } \end{vmatrix}\\ \\$

So,

$A=B$

(b)

$\begin{vmatrix}1 & sin \theta &1 \\ -sin \theta & 1 & sin \theta\\ -1 & -sin \theta & 1\end{vmatrix}$ then,

0%
$\Delta =0$
0%
$\Delta \in (0, \infty )$
0%
$\Delta \in [-1, 2]$
0%
$\Delta \in [2, 4]$

Explanation

Let

$\Delta = \begin{vmatrix}1 & sin \theta &1 \\ -sin \theta & 1 & sin \theta\\ -1 & -sin \theta & 1\end{vmatrix}$

$=1(1+sin^2 \theta)-sin \theta (0)+1(sin^2 \theta +1)$

$= 2 (1+sin^2 \theta)$

$\because 0 \leq sin^2 \theta \leq 1$

$\Rightarrow 1\leq 1+sin^2 \theta\leq 2$

$\Rightarrow 2 \leq 2 (1+sin^2 \theta)\leq 4$

$\Rightarrow 2 \leq \Delta \leq 4$

$\Rightarrow \Delta \in [2,4]$

$A=\begin{bmatrix} x & 1 & -x \\ 0 & 1 & -1 \\ x & 0 & 7 \end{bmatrix}$ and

$det(A)=\begin{vmatrix} 3 & 0 & 1 \\ 2 & -1 & 0 \\ 0 & 6 & 7 \end{vmatrix}$ then the value of

$x$ is

0%
$-3$
0%
$3$
0%
$2$
0%
$-8$
0%
$-2$

Explanation

Given,

$A=\begin{bmatrix} x & 1 & -x \\ 0 & 1 & -1 \\ x & 0 & 7 \end{bmatrix}$ . Then

det

$(A) = x7-1(0+x)-x(0-x)$

$=7x-x+x^2=x^2+6x$

$...(i)$
Also

$det(A)=\begin{vmatrix} 3 & 0 & 1 \\ 2 & -1 & 0 \\ 0 & 6 & 7 \end{vmatrix}$

$=3(-7-0)-0+1(12)=-9$

$...(ii)$
From Eqs(i) and (ii), we get

$\quad { x }^{ 2 }+6x=-9$

$\Rightarrow { x }^{ 2 }+6x+9=0\Rightarrow { (x+3) }^{ 2 }=0$

$x+3=0$

$x=-3$

$A=\begin{vmatrix} a & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & a & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & a \end{vmatrix}$ , then the value of

$\left| A \right| \left| adj\left( A \right) \right|$ is

0%
${ a }^{ 3 }$
0%
${ a }^{ 6 }$
0%
${ a }^{ 9 }$
0%
${ a }^{ 27 }$

Explanation

$A=\left| \begin{matrix} a & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & a & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & a \end{matrix} \right| =\\ \Rightarrow |A|={ a }^{ 3 }\left| \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{matrix} \right| ={ a }^{ 3 }\\ \left| adj(A) \right| ={ \left| A \right| }^{ n-1 }$

Here

$n=3$

$\Rightarrow \left| adj(A) \right| ={ \left| A \right| }^{ 3-1 }={ \left| A \right| }^{ 2 }={ a }^{ 6 }\\ \Rightarrow |A|.\left| adj(A) \right| ={ a }^{ 3 }.{ a }^{ 6 }={ a }^{ 9 }$

So option

$C$ is correct

$A=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & -1 \\ -1& 1 & 2 \\ 2 & -1 & 1\end{bmatrix}$ , then

$\text{det} (\text{adj}(\text{adj} A))$ is equal to.

0%
$14^4$
0%
$14^3$
0%
$14^2$
0%
$14$

Explanation

We have,

$A=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & -1\\ -1 & 1 & 2 \\ 2 & -1 & 1\end{bmatrix}$

$\Rightarrow |A|=1(1+2)-2(-1-4)-1(1-2)$

$=3+10+1=14$
We know that, for a square matrix of order

$n$ ,

$\text{adj}(\text{adj} A)=|A|^{n-2}A,$ if

$|A|\neq 0$

$\Rightarrow \text{det}(\text{adj} (\text{adj} A))=||A|^{n-2}A|$

$\Rightarrow \text{det}(\text{adj} (\text{adj} A))=(|A|^{n-2})^n|A|$

$\Rightarrow \text{det}(\text{adj} (\text{adj} A))=|A|^{n^2-2n+1}$
Here,

$n=3$ and

$|A|=14$
Therefore,

$\text{det}(\text{adj}(\text{adj} A))=(14)^{3^2-2\times 3+1}=14^4$ .

$\begin{vmatrix} x & 2 & 8 \\ 2 & 8 & x \\ 8 & x & 2 \end{vmatrix}=\begin{vmatrix} 3 & x & 7 \\ x & 7 & 3 \\ 7 & 3 & x \end{vmatrix}=\begin{vmatrix} 5 & 5 & x \\ 5 & x & 5 \\ x & 5 & 5 \end{vmatrix}=0$ then

$x$ is equal to

0%
$0$
0%
$-10$
0%
$3$
0%
None of these

Explanation

On applying

${ R }_{ 1 }\rightarrow { R }_{ 1 }+{ R }_{ 2 }+{ R }_{ 3 }$ in each determinant, we can take out

$\left( x+10 \right)$ common.
Then, we get

$x+10=0$

$\Rightarrow x=-10$

$A = \begin{bmatrix} \dfrac {-1 + i\sqrt {3}}{2i}& \dfrac {-1 - i\sqrt {3}}{2i}\\ \dfrac {1 + i\sqrt {3}}{2i} & \dfrac {1 - i\sqrt {3}}{2i}\end{bmatrix}, i = \sqrt {-i}$ and

$f(x) = x^{2} + 2$ , then

$f(A)$ is equal to

0%
$\left (\dfrac {5 - i\sqrt {3}}{2}\right ) \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$
0%
$\left (\dfrac {3 - i\sqrt {3}}{2}\right ) \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$
0%
$\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$
0%
$(2 + i\sqrt {3})\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0\\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$

Explanation

From the given matrix, we have

$A = \begin{bmatrix}\dfrac {\omega}{i} & \dfrac {\omega^{2}}{i}\\ -\dfrac {\omega^{2}}{i} & -\dfrac {\omega}{i}\end{bmatrix} = \dfrac {\omega}{i} \begin{bmatrix}1 & \omega\\ -\omega & -1\end{bmatrix}$
Thus

$A^{2} = \omega^{2} \begin{bmatrix}1 - \omega^{2} & 0\\ 0 & 1 - \omega^{2}\end{bmatrix}$

$= -\begin{bmatrix}-\omega^{2} + \omega^{4}& 0\\ 0 & -\omega^{2} + \omega\end{bmatrix}$

$= \begin{bmatrix}-\omega^{2} + \omega & 0\\ 0 & -\omega^{2} + \omega\end{bmatrix}$ ....

$\text{Since} \ f(x) = x^{2} + 2$
Therefore,

$f(A) = A^{2} + 2 = \begin{bmatrix}-\omega^{2} + \omega & 0\\ 0 & -\omega^{2} + \omega\end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix}2 & 0\\ 0 & 2\end{bmatrix}$

$- [\omega^{2} + \omega + 2] \begin{bmatrix}1 & 0\\ 0 & 1\end{bmatrix}$

$= (3 + 2\omega) \begin{bmatrix}1 & 0\\ 0 & 1\end{bmatrix}$

$= (2 + i\sqrt {3})\begin{bmatrix}1 & 0\\ 0 & 1\end{bmatrix}$

$3x+2y=I$ and

$2x-y=O$ , where

$I$ and

$O$ are unit and null matrices of order

$3$ respectively, then

0%
$x=\dfrac { 1 }{ 7 } , y=\dfrac { 2 }{ 7 }$
0%
$x=\dfrac { 2 }{ 7 } , y=\dfrac { 1 }{ 7 }$
0%
$x=\left( \dfrac { 1 }{ 7 } \right) I, y=\left( \dfrac { 2 }{ 7 } \right) I$
0%
$x=\left( \dfrac { 2 }{ 7 } \right) I, y=\left( \dfrac { 1 }{ 7 } \right) I$

Explanation

We have,

$3x+2y=I$ ...(i)

$2x-y=O$ ....(ii)
On multiplying equation (ii) by

$2$ , we get

$4x-2y=2\cdot O=O$ ...(iii)
On adding equations (i) and (iii), we get

$3x+2y=I$

$4x-2y=O$
____________

$7x=I$

$\Rightarrow x=\dfrac { I }{ 7 }$ or

$\dfrac { 1 }{ 7 } I$
From equation (i), we get

$2y=I-\dfrac { 3 }{ 7 } I=\dfrac { 4 }{ 7 } I$

$\Rightarrow y=\dfrac { 2 }{ 7 } I$

$\begin{vmatrix} { \left( { a }^{ x }+{ a }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( { a }^{ x }-{ a }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \\ { \left( b^{ x }+{ b }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( { b }^{ x }-{ b }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \\ { \left( { c }^{ x }+{ c }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( { c }^{ x }-{ c }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \end{vmatrix}$ is equal to

None of these

Explanation

Let

$\Delta=\begin{vmatrix} { \left( { a }^{ x }+{ a }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( { a }^{ x }-{ a }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \\ { \left( b^{ x }+{ b }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( { b }^{ x }-{ b }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \\ { \left( { c }^{ x }+{ c }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( { c }^{ x }-{ c }^{ -x } \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \end{vmatrix}$

Put

$x=0$ in the given determinant, we get

$\Delta =\begin{vmatrix} { \left( 1+1 \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( 1-1 \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \\ { \left( 1+1 \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( 1-1 \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \\ { \left( 1+1 \right) }^{ 2 } & { \left( 1-1 \right) }^{ 2 } & 1 \end{vmatrix}$

$=\begin{vmatrix} 4 & 0 & 1 \\ 4 & 0 & 1 \\ 4 & 0 & 1 \end{vmatrix}$

$=0$

If the determinant

$\Delta =\begin{vmatrix} 3 & -2 & \sin { 3\theta } \\ -7 & 8 & \cos { 2\theta } \\ -11 & 14 & 2 \end{vmatrix}=0$ , then the value of

0%
None of these

Explanation

Applying

${ R }_{ 2 }\rightarrow { R }_{ 2 }+4{ R }_{ 1 }$ and

${ R }_{ 3 }\rightarrow { R }_{ 3 }+7{ R }_{ 1 }$ we get

$\begin{vmatrix} 3 & -2 & \sin { 3\theta } \\ 5 & 0 & \cos { 2\theta } +4\sin { 3\theta } \\ 10 & 0 & 2+7\sin { 3\theta } \end{vmatrix}=0$

$\Rightarrow 2\left[ 5\left( 2+7\sin { 3\theta } \right) -10\left( \cos { 2\theta } +4\sin { 3\theta } \right) \right] =0$

$\Rightarrow 2+7\sin { 3\theta } -2\cos { 2\theta } -8\sin { 3\theta } =0$

$\Rightarrow 2-2\cos { 2\theta } -\sin { 3\theta } =0$

$\Rightarrow \sin { \theta } \left( 4\sin ^{ 2 }{ \theta } +4\sin { \theta } -3 \right) =0$

$\Rightarrow \sin { \theta } =0$ or

$\left( 2\sin { \theta } -1 \right) =0$ or

$\left( 2\sin { \theta } +3 \right) =0$

$\Rightarrow \sin { \theta } =0$ or

$\sin { \theta } =\dfrac { 1 }{ 2 }$

Explanation

Given that the points

$A,B,C$ are collinear such that

$A(3,4),C(11,10)$ and

$AB=2.5$ ,

Consider the line joining

$A$ and

$C$ ,

Slope of that line is

$\tan { \alpha } =\dfrac { 10-4 }{ 11-3 } =\dfrac { 3 }{ 4 }$ ,

$\Longrightarrow \cos { \alpha } =\dfrac { 4 }{ 5 }$ and

$\sin { \alpha } =\dfrac { 3 }{ 5 }$ ,

We know that a point in a line at a distance

$r$ from that point is

$y={ y }_{ 1 }+r\sin { \alpha }$ and

$x={ x }_{ 1 }+r\cos { \alpha }$ ,

Where

$\tan{\alpha}$ is the slope of that line

Let the coordinates of the point

$B$ be

$(x,y)$ ,

$\Longrightarrow x=3+2.5(0.2)=5$ and

$y=3+2.5(0.6)=\dfrac { 11 }{ 2 }$ ,

$\therefore$ The coordinates of

$B$ are

$\left(5,\dfrac{11}{2}\right)$

$A = \begin{bmatrix} 2& -3\\ 4 & 1\end{bmatrix}$ , then adjoint of matrix

$A$ is _______.

0%
$\begin{bmatrix} 1& 3\\ 4 & -2\end{bmatrix}$
0%
$\begin{bmatrix} -1& -3\\ -4 & 2\end{bmatrix}$

Explanation

Let

$A=\begin{bmatrix} 2&-3 \\4&1\end{bmatrix}$

Let

$C$ be the cofactor matrix of matrix

$A$ .

${C}_{11}={\left(-1\right)}^{1+1}{M}_{11}=1$

${C}_{12}={\left(-1\right)}^{1+2}{M}_{12}=-4$

${C}_{21}={\left(-1\right)}^{2+1}{M}_{21}=3$

${C}_{22}={\left(-1\right)}^{2+2}{M}_{22}=2$

$\therefore {C}_{ij}=\begin{bmatrix} {C}_{11} & {C}_{12} \\ {C}_{21} & {C}_{22}\end{bmatrix}$

$=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & -4 \\ 3 & 2\end{bmatrix}$

Adj

$\left({C}_{ij}\right)={\begin{bmatrix} 1 & -4 \\ 3 & 2\end{bmatrix}}^{T}$

$=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 \\ -4 & 2\end{bmatrix}$

If maximum and minimum values of

$D = \begin{vmatrix}1 & -\cos \theta & 1\\ \cos \theta & 1 & -\cos \theta\\ 1 & \cos \theta & 1\end{vmatrix}$ are

$p$ and

$q$ respectively, then the value of

$2p + 3q$ is _________.

0%
$16$
0%
$6$
0%
$14$
0%
$8$

Explanation

$D = \begin{vmatrix}1 & -\cos \theta & 1\\ \cos \theta & 1 & -\cos \theta\\ 1 & \cos \theta & 1\end{vmatrix}$

$\Rightarrow D = 1(1 + \cos^{2}\theta) + \cos \theta (\cos \theta + \cos \theta) - 1 (\cos^{2}\theta - 1)$

$= 1 + \cos^{2}\theta + 2\cos^{2}\theta -\cos^{2} \theta + 1$

$= 2 (1 + \cos^{2} \theta)$

Now,

$-1\le \cos \theta\le 1\Rightarrow 0\le \cos^{2}\theta\le 1$

$\therefore p = 4, q = 2$

$\therefore 2p + 3q = 14$ .

The value of the determinant

$1$
0%
$0$

0%
$\vec {a} + \vec {b} + \vec {c}$

Explanation

$\bar { a } \cdot \bar { b } =\bar { a } \bar { b } \cos { \theta }$

Co planar

$\Rightarrow \theta =0$

$\Rightarrow \bar { a } \cdot \bar { b } =0$

Parallelly

$\bar { a } \cdot \bar { c } =\bar { a } \cdot \bar { c } =0$

$\begin{vmatrix} \bar { a } & \bar { b } & \bar { c } \\ \bar { a } \cdot \bar { a } & \bar { a } \cdot \bar { b } & \bar { a } \cdot \bar { c } \\ \bar { b } \cdot \bar { a } & \bar { b } \cdot \bar { b } & \bar { b } \cdot \bar { c } \end{vmatrix}$

$=\begin{vmatrix} \bar { a } & \bar { b } & \bar { c } \\ \bar { a } \cdot \bar { a } & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & \bar { b } \cdot \bar { b } & 0 \end{vmatrix}$

$=\bar { a } \left( 0 \right) -\bar { b } \left( 0 \right) +\bar { c } \left( \bar { a } \cdot \bar { a } -\bar { b } \cdot \bar { b } \right)$

$=0$

Let

$A^{-1}\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2017 & 2\\ 1 & 2017 & 4 \\ 1 & 2018 & 8\end {bmatrix}$ . Then

$|2A|-|2A^{-1}|$ is equal to.

0%
$3$
0%
$-3$
0%
$12$
0%

Explanation

$\left | A^{-1} \right | = \dfrac{1}{\left | A \right |}$

given matrix

$A^{-1} =$

$\begin{bmatrix} 1&2017 &2 \\ 1& 2017 &4 \\ 1&2018 &8 \end{bmatrix}$

solving the determinant

$\left | A^{-1} \right | = \dfrac{1}{\left | A \right |} = -2$

$\left | kA \right | = k^{n}\left | A \right |$

where n is the order of the matrix

$-\left | 2A^{-1} \right | + \left | 2A \right |$

$=-(-2)\times 2^{3}+\dfrac{-1}{2}\times 2^{3} =12$

The value of the determinant

$\begin{vmatrix} \cos^2 \dfrac{\theta}{2}&\sin^2\dfrac{\theta}{2}\\ \sin^2\dfrac{\theta}{2} &\cos^2\dfrac{\theta}{2} \end{vmatrix}$
for all values of

$\theta$ , is

0%
$1$
0%
$\cos\theta$
0%
$\sin\theta$
0%
$\cos2\theta$

Explanation

$\begin{vmatrix}\cos ^2\dfrac{\theta}{2}&\sin ^2\dfrac{\theta}{2}\\ \sin ^2\dfrac{\theta}{2} & {\cos }^2 \dfrac{\theta}{2}\end{vmatrix}=\cos ^4\dfrac{\theta}{2}-\sin ^4\dfrac{\theta}{2}$

$=\left({\cos }^2 \dfrac{\theta}2+{\sin }^2 \dfrac{\theta}2\right)\left({\cos }^2 \dfrac{\theta}2-{\sin }^2 \dfrac{\theta}2\right)$

$=1\times \cos \theta=\cos \theta$

Hence, the answer is

$\cos \theta$ .

Let

$z = \begin{vmatrix} 1& 1 + 2i & -5i\\ 1 - 2i & -3 & 5 + 3i\\ 5i & 5 - 3i & 7\end{vmatrix}$ , then

$z$ is purely real
0%
$z$ is purely imaginary
0%
$(z - \overline {z})i = 0$
0%
$(z + \overline {z})i = 0$

Explanation

$z=\left| \begin{matrix} 1 & 1+2i & -5i \\ 1-2i & -3 & 5+3i \\ 5i & 5-3i & 7 \end{matrix} \right| \\ \quad =1(-21-36)\quad -(1+2i)(7-14i-25i+15)\quad -5i(-13i-1)\\ \quad =-57-(1+2i)(22-39i)-65+5i\\ \quad =-57-(22-39i+44i+78)-65+5i\\ \quad =-57-100-5i-65+5i\\ \quad =-222$

$\therefore z$ is purely real.

Explanation

$adj(A)=cofactor(A)^T=\begin{bmatrix} A_{11} &A_{21}&A_{31}\\A_{12} &A_{22} &A_{32}\\A_{13} &A_{23} &A_{33}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix} 1 &6&-2\\-2 &1 &4\\6 &-3 &1\end{bmatrix}$

Three distinct points A, B and C are given in the 2-dimensional coordinate plane such that the ratio of the distance of any one of them from the point

$(1, 0)$ to the distance from the point

$(-1, 0)$ is equal to

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}$ . Then the circumcentre of the triangle ABC is at the point:

$\displaystyle \left( \frac{5}{3}, 0 \right)$
0%
$\displaystyle \left( 0, 0 \right)$
0%
$\displaystyle \left( \frac{5}{8}, 0 \right)$

Explanation

Let (h,k) be the locus of points A, B & C

using given condition

$\dfrac{\sqrt{(h-1)^{2}+K^{2}}}{\sqrt{(h+1)^{2}+K^{2}}}=\dfrac{1}{3}$

$9(h-1)^{2}+9K^{2}=(h+1)^{2}+K^{2}$

or,

$8h^{2}+8K^{2}-20h+8=0$

$h^{2}+K^{2}-\dfrac{5h}{4}+1=0$

this is a circle and it will be same circle which circumscribe

$\Delta ABC$ as it contains all three pts on it.

$\therefore$ center of circumcircle

$\equiv \left(\dfrac{5}{8}, 0\right)$

$A + B + C = \pi$ , then

Explanation

Three points

$A(-2,1),\ B(a,b)$ and

$C(4,-1)$ are collinear so the area of the triangle is equal to zero

Here the equation

$(1)$ is

$\to a-b=1$

Here

$x_1=-2\ y_1=1$

$x_1 =a\ y_1=b$

$x_3=4\ y_3=-1$

Area of the triangle

$\triangle ABC=\dfrac {1}{2} [x_1 (y_2 -y_3)+x_2 (y_3 -y_1)+x_3 (y_1 -y_2)]=0$

$\Rightarrow \ \dfrac {1}{2} [-2(b+1)+a(-1 -1)+4(1-b)]=0$

$\Rightarrow \ \dfrac {1}{2}[-2b-2-2b+4-4b]=0$

$\Rightarrow \ \dfrac {1}{2} [-6b+2-2b]=0$

$\Rightarrow \ -3b+1-a=0$

$\Rightarrow \ -a-3b=-1$ ......Equation

$2$

Equation

$(1)\times 1\longrightarrow a-b=1$

Equation

$(2)\times 1\to \dfrac {-a-2b=-1}{-4b=0\\ \Rightarrow b=0}$

$x^2 (x^2 - 1) \, \begin{vmatrix} 1 & -1 & 0 \\ 1 & -1 & 0 \\ 3 & x - 2 & 1 \end{vmatrix}$

As two rows of the determinant is zero

$\therefore$ Determinant

$= 0$

Hence,

$\boxed {f(x) = 0}$

$\therefore$ for any value of

$x ;\ f(x) = 0$

Hence,

$\boxed {f(100) = 0}$

If A =

0%

$\pm5$

Explanation

$A = \begin{bmatrix} \alpha & 2 \\ 2 & \alpha \end{bmatrix}$ .

$|A^3| = 125$

$|A| = \alpha^2 - 4$

we know by properties of determinants that

$|A^3| = |A|^3$

$\Rightarrow \ (\alpha^2 - 4)^3 = 125$

$\Rightarrow \ \alpha^2 - 4 = 5$

$\Rightarrow \ a^2 = 9$

$\Rightarrow \ \boxed {\alpha = \pm 3}$

Hence, option
