- Proof Prove that if A and B are similar matrices and A is nonsingular, then B is also nonsingular and A1 and B1 are similar matrices.arrow_forwardProof Prove that if A and B are similar matrices, then |A|=|B|. Is the converse true?arrow_forwardProof Prove that if A and B are square matrices of order n, then TrAB=TrBA.arrow_forward
- A square matrix is called upper triangular if all of the entries below the main diagonal are zero. Thus, the form of an upper triangular matrix is where the entries marked * are arbitrary. A more formal definition of such a matrix . 29. Prove that the product of two upper triangular matrices is upper triangular.arrow_forwardDecoding a Message: The cryptogram below was encoded with a 22matrix. 52251127151532148133819193716 The last word of the message is SUE.What is the message?arrow_forwardTrue or false? det(A) is defined only for a square matrix A.arrow_forward
- CAPSTONE Let A and B be square matrices of order 3 such that |A|=4 and |B|=5. a Find |AB| b Find |2A|. c Are A and B singular or nonsingular ? Explain. d If A and B are nonsingular, find |A1| and |B1|. e Find |(AB)T|.arrow_forwardUse elementary matrices to find the inverse of A=1a0010001100b1000110001000c, c0.arrow_forwardGuidedProof Prove that if A is an mn matrix, then AAT and ATA are symmetric matrices. Getting Started: To prove that AAT is symmetric, you need to show that it is equal to its transpose, AATT=AAT. i Begin your proof with the left-hand matrix expression AATT. ii Use the properties of the transpose operation to show that AATT can be simplified to equal the right-hand expression, AAT. iii Repeat this analysis for the product ATA.arrow_forward
