For each of the given characteristic polynomials state which
For each of the given characteristic polynomials, state which of the following is time. Justify your answer. The matrix A is definitely diagonalizable. The matrix A is definitely not diagonalizable. More information is needed to determine if A is diagonalizable. p, (A) = (A-2)(A+5)(A-1). Pm(A) = (A - 2)^3. Pm(A) = (A^2+4)(A-1). ju(A) = (A^2-9)(A-1).
Solution
Then A is diagonalizable if and only if A has n linearly independent eigenvectors.
i) matrix has three different eigen values that would give three distinct eigen vectors
Definitely Diagonalizable
ii) all repeated eigen values
diagonalizable , need to find out further
iii) complex wigen values .
Not diagonalizable
iv) lamda = 3 , -3 , 1 are distinct
matrix is diagonalizable
