Question

Identify the following matrix is singular or non-singular?

`[("a", "b", "c"),("p", "q", "r"),(2"a" - "p", 2"b" - "q", 2"c" - "r")]`

Sum

Solution

Let A = `[("a", "b", "c"),("p", "q", "r"),(2"a" - "p", 2"b" - "q", 2"c" - "r")]`

∴ | A | = `|("a", "b", "c"),("p", "q", "r"),(2"a" - "p", 2"b" - "q", 2"c" - "r")|`

= `|("a", "b", "c"),("p", "q", "r"),(2"a", 2"b", 2"c")| + |("a", "b", "c"),("p", "q", "r"),(-"p", -"q", -"r")|`

By taking 2 and – 1 common from R3 in the first and second determinants respectively, we get,

| A | = `2|("a", "b", "c"),("p", "q", "r"),("a", "b", "c")| - |("a", "b", "c"),("p", "q", "r"),("p", "q", "r")|`

= 2 x 0 – 0

= 0

∴ A is a singular matrix.
