Let A be a 3 × 3 matrix such that A 1 0 0 221331 = 0 1 0 001100
Then A−1 =
Solution
When two matrices are multiplied to get a new matrix , we can also find one of two matrices by multiplying inverse of the other given matrix on both sides. Now you can find the inverse of the matrix by finding adjacent matrices and then multiplying the inverse matrix with the product to get that value of the unknown matrix.
Complete step by step answer:
Let us assume that the matrix 1 0 0 221331 is B.
B = 1 0 0 221331
⇒ (AB) = 0 1 0 001100
By multiplying B−1on both sides on the right side of the above equation, we get
(AB)B−1 = 0 1 0 001100 B−1
By associative law of matrices we have, (AB)C = A(BC)
A(BB−1)) = 0 1 0 001100B−1
⇒ A = 0 1 0 001100 B−1 (because BB−1= I and A I = A , where I is the identity matrix)
Now we need to find the value of B inverse and then multiply it with 0 1 0 001100 to get the value of A.
We know that B−1 = detB1(AdjB)
The determinant of matrix a11 a21 a31 a12a22a32a13a23a33 will be deta11 a21 a31 a12a22a32a13a23a33=a11(a22a33−a32a23)−a12(a21a33−a31a23)+a13(a21a32−a22a31)
Comparing a11 a21 a31 a12a22a32a13a23a33 with 1 0 0 221331
a11=1 a21=0 a31=0 a12=2a22=2a32=1a13=3a23=3a33=1
detB = 1(2−3)2(0−0)+3(0−0)=−1
Now we need the value of Adj B
For finding the adjoint matrix we will first find the minors of each element and then writing the minors matrix by taking determinant values of each minor and then convert it into cofactor matrix and then finally taking the transpose of cofactor matrix.
The minors of the matrix a11=1 a21=0 a31=0 a12=2a22=2a32=1a13=3a23=3a33=1 will be
M11=minor of a11=det2 1 31=2(1)−3(1)=−1M12=minor of a12=det0 0 31=0−0=0M13=minor of a13=det0 0 21=0−0=0M21=minor of a21=det2 1 31=2−3=−1M22=minor of a22=det1 0 31=1−0=1M23=minor of a23=det1 0 21=1−0=1M31=minor of a31=det2 2 33=6−6=0M32=minor of a32=det1 0 33=3−0=3M33=minor of a33=det1 0 22=2−0=2
The minor matrix will be
M11 M21 M31 M12M22M32M13M23M33= −1 −1 0 013012
now the co-factor matrix will be(−1)i+jaij
co-factor matrix= −1 −(−1) 0 −(0)1−(3)0−(1)2= −1 1 0 01−30−12
the transpose of cofactor matrix that is AdjB will be
(co-factor matrix)T=−1 1 0 01−30−12T= −1 0 0 11−10−32
now B−1 will be detB1(AdjB)
that implies
B−1= (−1)1−1 0 0 11−10−32
B−1=1 0 0 −1−1103−2
Now by multiplying 0 1 0 001100 with B−1 =1 0 0 −1−1103−2we get A
A=0 1 0 001100×1 0 0 −1−1103−2=0 1 0 1−1−1−203
A = 0 1 0 1−1−1−203
In the similar let us find A−1,
A−1=detA1(adjA)
det0 1 0 1−1−1−203=0(−3)−1(3)−2(−1)=−1detA=−1
First let us find the minor matrix of A,
Comparing 0 1 0 1−1−1−203,a11 a21 a31 a12a22a32a13a23a33we have a11=0 a21=1 a31=0 a12=1a22=−1a32=−1a13=−2a23=0a33=3
M11=minor of a11=det−1 −1 03=−1(3)−0(−1)=−3M12=minor of a12=det1 0 03=3−0=3M13=minor of a13=det1 0 −1−1=−1−0=−1M21=minor of a21=det1 −1 −23=3−2=1M22=minor of a22=det0 0 −23=0−0=0M23=minor of a23=det0 0 1−1=0−0=0M31=minor of a31=det1 −1 −20=0−2=−2M32=minor of a32=det0 1 −20=0+2=2M33=minor of a33=det0 1 1−1=0−1=−1
Minor matrix would be ,
M11 M21 M31 M12M22M32M13M23M33= −3 1 −2 302−10−1
now the co-factor matrix will be(−1)i+jaij
co-factor matrix= −3 −(1) −2 −(3)0−(2)−1−(0)−1=−3 −1 −2 −30−2−10−1
the transpose of cofactor matrix that is AdjA will be
(co-factor matrix)T=−3 −1 −2 −30−2−10−1T=−3 −3 −1 −100−2−2−1=adjA
A−1=detA1(adjA)
A−1=(−1)1−3 −3 −1 −100−2−2−1=3 3 1 100221
A−1 = 3 3 1 100221
Note: Make sure that the determinant of the matrix for which you are finding the inverse is not 0. Because if it is zero , then the matrix will not be invertible , hence we cannot find the inverse of that particular matrix. Make sure there are no calculation mistakes as there are many calculation processes.
