Express the given problem as a system of linear equations in the form of and hence verify
Cayley Hamilton Theorem for A.
17. Find the rank of the following matrices using normal form
(b) (c)
18. The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180°. In a given triangle, the measure of the second
Angle is twice the measure of the first. The measure of the third angle is 30° less than the sum of the
measures of the first two. Express the given problem as a system of linear equations and hence check the
Obtained system is consistent or not. If Consistent, then find solution.
