The eigenvectors are
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The diagonal matrix
the vectors x and Ax should both be aligned along the positive x-axis.
Calculation:
Now using the eigshow command in MATLAB, we draw the vectors “x” and “Ax” as follows:
From the figure, we see that the vectors x and Ax both are aligned along the positive x-axis.
As both the vectors are parallel, one vector is multiple of the other.
Therefore,
From the figure above we obtain as:
Therefore,
Thus for this position the eigenvalue is
Now, rotate x counterclockwise until x and Ax are parallel as follows:
Again, as both the vectors are parallel, one vector is multiple of the other.
Hence,
From the second figure above it is obtain as:
Therefore,
Thus for this position the eigenvalue is
Let the matrix:
Now using the eigshow command in MATLAB, we draw the vectors x and Ax as follows:
Since both the vectors are parallel, we can say that one vector is multiple of the other.
So,
From the figure above we obtain as:
Therefore,
Thus for this position the eigenvalue is
Now, we rotate x counterclockwise until x and Ax are parallel as follows:
Again, as both the vectors are parallel, one vector is multiple of the other.
Hence,
From the second figure above it is obtain as:
Hence,
Thus for this position the eigenvalue is
The eigenvalues are
This experiment also works for a
Conclusion:
In first figure, the eigenvalue is
In second figure, the eigenvalue is
In third figure the eigenvalue is
In third figure, the eigenvalue is
The eigenvalues are
the eigenvectors are
