Solution

The correct option is C 101
A = ⎢ ⎢ ⎢3201201012032⎥ ⎥ ⎥

To find the eigen values of A, det(AλI) = 0 i.e.,

∣ ∣ ∣32λ 01201λ012032λ ∣ ∣ ∣ = 0

(32λ)[(1λ)(32λ)]+12[012(1λ)] = 0

(1λ)[(32λ)214] = 0

(1+λ)[λ23λ+2] = 0

or (1+λ)(λ1)(λ2) = 0

Hence eigen values of A are -1, 1 and 2.

Now, let X be an eigen vector of A associated to λ, then

AX = λX

So, ⎢ ⎢ ⎢3201201012032⎥ ⎥ ⎥ 101 = λ101 On solving it λ = 2 so given Eigen vector corresponds to λ = 2

Thus for λ = +1 by taking X = xyz, we have

AX = λX

(A-I)X = 0

⎢ ⎢1201202012012⎥ ⎥xyz=000

12x +12z = 0

& -2y = 0

So y = 0 & x = -z. Let z = k then x = -k

So Eigen Vector for λ = 1,

X = K0K101101

Hence option (c) satisfies.
