Chapter 2.6, Problem 4P

Explanation of Solution

a.

Proof:

Consider a 1×1 matrix,

A=[a]

Then, det(A)=a

Now, we have

A=[a]

Then, we get

det(A)=a             =det(A)

Similarly consider a 3×3 matrix as given below:

A=[a     b     c0     d     e0     f   

Explanation of Solution

b.

Proof:

Let us consider a  2×2 matrix as given below:

A=[a     bc     d]

Then, we get det(A)=adbc

Now, we have

A=[a    -bc    -d]

Then, we get

det(A)=adbc             =det(A)

Similarly consider a 4×4 matrix as,

A=[a     b     c      d0     e      f      g0     h      0    �

Explanation of Solution

Generalize the results of part (a.) and (b.):

From part a.) and part b.), we conclude that

For any n×n matrix,

det(A)=det(

USING PYTHON A tridiagonal matrix is one where the only nonzero elements are the ones on the main diagonal (i.e., ai,j where j = i) and the ones immediately above and belowit(i.e.,ai,j wherej=i+1orj=i−1). Write a function that solves a linear system whose coefficient matrix is tridiag- onal. In this case, Gauss elimination can be made much more efficient because most elements are already zero and don’t need to be modified or added. Please show steps and explain.
Consider the following. 0 1 -3 A = 0 4 0 4 1 2 2 2 -1 2 (a) Verify that A is diagonalizable by computing P-AP. p-1AP = (b) Use the result of part (a) and the theorem below to find the eigenvalues of A. Similar Matrices Have the Same Eigenvalues If A and B are similar n x n matrices, then they have the same eigenvalues.
If there is a non-singular matrix P such as P-1AP=D, matrix A is called a diagonalizable matrix. A, n x n square matrix is ​​diagonalizable if and only if matrix A has n linearly independent eigenvectors. In this case, the diagonal elements of the diagonal matrix D are the eigenvalues ​​of the matrix A.   A=({{1, -1, -1}, {1, 3, 1}, {-3, 1, -1}}) : 1 -1 -1 1 3 1 -3 1 -1   a)Write a program that calculates the eigenvalues ​​and eigenvectors of matrix A using NumPy. b)Write the program that determines whether the D matrix is ​​diagonal by calculating the D matrix, using NumPy. #UsePython
