QJEEM24Ma2d7f: JEE Main 2024 Mathematics - Class 12 JEEM24Ma2d7f Solution: Consider the matrix . Given below are two statements :…

Consider the matrix f(x)=[cos⁡xamp;−sin⁡xamp;0sin⁡xamp;cos⁡xamp;00amp;0amp;1]f(x)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\cos x & -\sin x & 0 \\ \sin x & \cos x & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right] .

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : f(−x)f(-x) is the inverse of the matrix f(x)f(x) .

Statement II : f(x)f(y)=f(x+y)f(x) f(y)=f(x+y) .

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Multiple Choice Options

  • A Statement I is false but Statement II is true
  • B Both Statement I and Statement II are false
  • C Both Statement I and Statement II are true
  • D Statement I is true but Statement II is false

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

amp;f(−x)=[cos⁡xamp;sin⁡xamp;0−sin⁡xamp;cos⁡xamp;00amp;0amp;1]amp;f(x)⋅f(−x)=[1amp;0amp;00amp;1amp;00amp;0amp;1]=I\begin{aligned}& f(-x)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\cos x & \sin x & 0 \\-\sin x & \cos x & 0 \\0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right] \\& f(x) \cdot f(-x)=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 0 & 0 \\0 & 1 & 0 \\0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right]=I\end{aligned}

Hence statement- I is correct

Now, checking statement II

amp;f(y)=[cos⁡yamp;−sin⁡yamp;0sin⁡yamp;cos⁡yamp;00amp;0amp;1]amp;f(x)⋅f(y)=[cos⁡(x+y)amp;−sin⁡(x+y)amp;0sin⁡(x+y)amp;cos⁡(x+y)amp;00amp;0amp;1]amp;⇒f(x)⋅f(y)=f(x+y)\begin{aligned}& f(y)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\cos y & -\sin y & 0 \\\sin y & \cos y & 0 \\0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right] \\& f(x) \cdot f(y)=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\cos (x+y) & -\sin (x+y) & 0 \\\sin (x+y) & \cos (x+y) & 0 \\0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right] \\& \Rightarrow f(x) \cdot f(y)=f(x+y)\end{aligned}

Hence statement-II is also correct.
