Rajasthan Board RBSE Class 12 Maths Chapter 5 Inverse of a Matrix and Linear Equations Ex 5.1
RBSE Solutions For Class 12 Maths Chapter 5 Question 1.
For which value of x, matrix
is singular ?
Solution:

⇒ 1 (- 6 – 2) + 2 (-3 – x) + 3(2 – 2x) = 0
⇒ -8 – 6 – 2x + 6 – 6x = 0
⇒ -8 = 8
⇒ x = 8/−8 = -1
Hence, x = -1
RBSE Solutions For Class 12 Maths Chapter 5.1 Question 2.
If matrix
, then find adj.A, Also prove that, A(adj.A) = |A| I3 = (adj.A)A.
Solution:

Matrix made from adjoint of matrix A,


RBSE Solutions For Class 12 Maths Chapter 5 Miscellaneous Question 3.
Find the inverse matrix of the following matrix:

Solution:
(i) Let

= 1(1 + 3) – 2(-1 + 2) + 5(3 + 2)
= 4 – 2 + 25
|A| = 27 ≠ 0
So. A-1 exists.
Cofactors of matrix A,

Matrix made from adjoint of matrix A,

Cofactors of matrix A,

Matrix made from adjoint of matrix A,

Cofactors of matrix A.


Matrix made from adjoint of matrix A,

Ex 5.1 Class 12 Question 4.
If matrix

then find A-1 and prove that:
(i) A-1A= I3
(ii) A-1 = F(-α)
(iii) A(adj.A) = |A|I = (adj A).A
Solution:

Then, |A| = cos α (cos α – 0) + sin α (sin α – 0) + 0(0 – 0)
= cos2 α + sin2 α
|A|= 1 ≠ 0 So,
A-1 exists.
Cofactors of matrix A,

Matrix made from adjoint of matrix A




So, A(adj.A) = |A|I = (adj.A) A Hence Proved.
Class 12 Math Chapter 5.1 Solution Question 5.
, then prove that : A-1 = AT.
Solution:
Let




RBSE Solutions For Class 12 Maths Chapter 5.1 Question 6.
If matrix
, then prove that A-1 = A3.
Solution:
Given,

So, A-1 exists.
On finding adjoint of matrix A,
a11 = – 1, a12 = – 2, a21 = 1, a22 = 1
Matrix formed by adjoint of A,

From (i) and (ii),
A-1 = A3
Hence proved.
Exercise 5.1 Class 12 Question 7.

then find (AB)-1.
Solution:
Given

Then, |A| = 5(3 – 4) – 0(2 – 2) + 4(4 – 3)
= – 5 – 0 + 4
|A| = -1 ≠ 0
So, A-1 exists.
On finding adjoint of matrix A,

Matrix formed by adjoint of A



RBSE Solutions For Class 12 Maths Chapter 5 Question 8.
If 
Solution:
Given


Matrix 5.1 Question 9.
Show prove that matrix
satisfies equation A2 – 6A + 17I = O. Thus find A-1.
Solution:
Given


Maths Chapter 5 Class 12 Question 10.
If matrix 
, then show that A2 + 4A – 42I = O. Hence A2.
Solution:
Given


So, given matrix satisfies A2 + 4A – 42I = O
Now A2 + 4A – 42I = O
⇒ A2 + 4A = 42I
⇒ A-1 (A2 + 4A) = 42A-1.I
⇒ A-1.A2 + 4A-1.A = 42A-1.I
⇒ A + 4I = 42A-1
(∵ A-1.A = I and A-1.I = A-1)
