If and A–1 = A’, find value of α.

Given, A =


We know that transpose of a matrix is obtained by interchanging rows with respective columns.


A’ =


Inverse of a matrix A = A-1 =


Clearly |A| =


|A| = {using trigonometric identity}


Adj(A) is given by the transpose of the cofactor matrix.


adj(A) =


A-1 =


According to question:


A’ = A-1



As both the matrices are equal irrespective of the value of α.


α can be any real number …ans
