Questions and Answers

What is the primary purpose of calculating the rank of a matrix?

  • To classify the type of matrix based on its dimensions
  • To determine the number of non-zero rows in its echelon form (correct)
  • To compute the inverse of the matrix
  • To find the eigenvalues of the matrix
  • Which of the following properties is NOT true for eigenvectors of a matrix?

  • Eigenvectors must always form a complete basis for the vector space. (correct)
  • An eigenvector associated with an eigenvalue can be scaled by any non-zero scalar.
  • Eigenvectors can be zero vectors only if the eigenvalue is zero.
  • Eigenvectors corresponding to distinct eigenvalues are linearly independent.
  • What is the relationship between the adjoint of a matrix and its inverse?

  • The adjoint represents only the diagonal elements of the inverse.
  • The inverse is equal to the adjoint divided by the determinant. (correct)
  • The adjoint can be calculated directly from the inverse.
  • Both the adjoint and inverse yield the same matrix if the original is singular.
