Question



(1) (20 points) Indicate whether the statement is true (T) or false (F) without proof. Each right answer is for 2 points and wrong answer is for -1 points. (a) A 4 x 4 orthogonal matrix has always a real cigenvalue. (b) If A is a symmetric matrix such that As = 0,then A-0. (c) The kernel of the differential operator ( 100 on Co (R) has dimension 100. thogonal. space of all polynomials. most n in t with real coeflicients. Then the set W (d) If an orthogonal matrix A is similar to B, then B is also or- (e) If all the cigenvalucs of A are zero, then we have A-0. (f) The transformation T)()f(2) -23f (x) is linear on the (g) Denote by Pn the vector space of polynomials of degree at [p(t) E Pn I p(5) Z) is a subspace of P (h) Singular matrices are not diagonalizable. (i) If A is diagonalizable and has characteristic polynomial p(A) = (A-1)(A - 2)3(A -3)6, then the rank of 31 - A is 4. G) Any square matrix A is the sum of two invertible matrices.
