Define a relation over a class of real matrices as “ if there exists a non-singular matrix such that ”.
Then which of the following is true?
is an equivalence relation
Explanation for correct option.
Step1. For reflexive
Given, a relation over a class of real matrices as “ if there exists a non-singular matrix such that ”
Which is true for
‘ is reflexive.
Step2. For symmetric.
As for matrix
for matrix
is symmetric
Step3. For transitive.
Now,
for matrix
is transitive
So, is an equivalence relation.
Hence, correct option is
