2Reduced echelon form
Because the reduced echelon form of A is the
identity matrix,we know that the columns of A
are a basis for R2

5Every vector in the range of A is of the form
Is a linear combination of the columns of A. The
columns of A span R2 the range of A

6The determinant of A (1)(7) (4)(-2) 15
Return to outline
7Because the determinant of A is NOT ZERO, A is
invertible (nonsingular)

8If A is the matrix for T relative to the standard
basis,what is the matrix for T relative to the
basis
Q is similar to A. Q is the matrix for T relative
to the ? basis, (columns of P)

14Return to outline
15Return to outline
16The range of B is spanned by its columns.
Because its null spacehas dimension 2 , we know
that its range has dimension 2.(dim domain dim
range dim null sp).Any two independent columns
can serve as a basis for the range.
Return to outline
17Because the determinant is 0, B has no inverse.
ie. B is singular

18If P is a 4x4 nonsingular matrix, then B is
similar toany matrix of the form P-1 BP
Return to outline
19The eigenvalues are 0 and 2.

20The null space of (2I B)The eigenspace
belonging to 2
The null space of (0I B) the null space of
B.The eigenspace belonging to 0 the null
space of the matrix
Return to outline
21There are not enough independent eigenvectors to
make a basis for R4 . The characteristic
polynomial root 0 is repeated three times,
but the eigenspace belonging to 0 is two
dimensional. B is NOT similar to a diagonal
matrix.

22The reduced echelon form of C is
Return to outline
23Return to outline
24A basis for the null space is
Return to outline
25The columns of the matrix span the range. The
dimension of the null space is 1. Therefore the
dimension of the range is 2. Choose 2
independent columns of C to form a basis for the
range
Return to outline
26The determinant of C is 0. Therefore C has no
inverse.
Return to outline
27For any nonsingular 3x3 matrix P, C is similar
to P-1 CP
