Question

Choose the correct alternative.

If A = `[(α, 4),(4, α)]` and |A3| = 729, then α = ______.

Options

  • ±3

  • ±4

  • ±5

  • ±6

MCQ
Fill in the Blanks

Solution

If A = `[(α, 4),(4, α)]` and |A3| = 729, then α = ±5.

Explanation:

|A| = `[(α, 4),(4, α)]` = α2 – 16

|A|3 = 729 = 93 

∴ |A| = 9

∴ α2 – 16 = 9

∴ α2 = 25

∴ α = ±5.
