Class 12 Maths · Matrices · Short Answer #96

For A=\(\begin{bmatrix}3 & -3\\-3 & 3\end{bmatrix}\), find λ such that A²=λA.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: λ=6
  1. Multiplication gives A²=[[18,−18],[−18,18]].
  2. This is 6[[3,−3],[−3,3]]=6A; since A≠O the scalar is fixed.
  3. Therefore λ=6.

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] Multiplication gives A²=[[18,−18],[−18,18]].
  • [1 mark] This is 6[[3,−3],[−3,3]]=6A; since A≠O the scalar is fixed.
  • [0.5 marks] Therefore λ=6.
