The number of distinct eigenvalues of the matrix A = ≤ft[ {*20c 2&2&3&3\\ 0&1&1&1\\ {*20c 0\\ 0 }&{*20c 0\\ 0 }&{*20c 3\\ 0 }&{*20c 3\\ 2 } } ] is equal to ______.

Correct Answer

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

In the range: 3 - 3

A = ≤ft[ {*20c 2&2&3&3\\ 0&1&1&1\\ {*20c 0\\ 0 }&{*20c 0\\ 0 }&{*20c 3\\ 0 }&{*20c 3\\ 2 } } ]

The given matrix is a upper triangular matrix

For upper triangular matrix, eigen values are the diagonal elements

Hence,

λ₁ = 2 = λ₄

λ₂ = 1

λ₃ = 3

Hence, there are three distinct eigen values.
