A square matrix is said to be lower triangular matrix if

(a) aij = 0 , i < j (b) aij = 0, i = j (c) aij = 0 , i > j (d) aij = 1, i = j 2 0 0 2.

If one of the eigen values of A is zero, then A is (a) non-singular (b) skew - symmetric (c) symmetric (d) singular 1 1 0 14.

If the characteristic equation of the square matrix A is 2 - 4 = 0 then A4 = ( where I is the second order unit matrix ) (a) I (b) 64 I (c) 16 I (d) 4 I 18. Diagonalization of a matrix by orthogonal transformation is possible only for (a) skew-symmetric (b) symmetric (c) orthogonal (d) real symmetric 19.
