3α + 2β − 5γ + δ = 0
Ans : (d) Let A is diagonalizable then there is an
+β − 0 γ + 4δ = 0
invertible matrix B such that B–1AB = D with D diagonal.
Taking transpose of it, we get +γ + 8δ = 0

Also since (a) λ1 = 1, λ 2 = 2, λ 3 = 0

Thus if we sit P = ( B ) t −1

order 3 with eigen values λ1, λ2, λ3.
P A P=D Then A–1 is diagonalizable if
and So, At is diagonalizable
λ1 = 2, λ 2 = 1, λ 3 = 0
Since (A ) t t

diagonalizable so is A.
