Question
If A = `[(3, 1),(-1, 2)]`, then prove that A2 – 5A + 7I = O, where I is unit matrix of order 2
Solution
A2 – 5A + 7I = A.A − 5A + 7I
= `[(3, 1),(-1, 2)] [(3, 1),(-1, 2)] -5[(3, 1),(-1, 2)] + 7[(1, 0),(0, 1)]`
= `[(9 - 1, 3 + 2),(-3 - 2, -1 + 4)] - [(15, 5),(-5, 10)] + [(7, 0),(0, 7)]`
= `[(8, 5),(-5, 3)] - [(15, 5),(-5, 10)] + [(7, 0),(0, 7)]`
= `[(8 - 15 + 7, 5 - 5 + 0),(-5 + 5 + 0, 3 - 10 + 7)]`
= `[(0, 0),(0, 0)]`
= O
