3 and 4 .Determinants and Matrices
normal
The set of equations $\lambda x - y + (\cos\theta ) z = 0$ $3x + y + 2z = 0$ $(\cos\theta )x + y + 2z = 0$ $0 < \theta < 2\pi$ , has non- trivial solution $(s)$
A
for no value of $\lambda$ and $\theta$
B
for all values of $\lambda$ and $\theta$
C
for all values of $\lambda$ and only two values of $\theta$
D
for only one value of $\lambda$ and all values of $\theta$
Solution
$D = cos\theta – \cos^2\theta + 6 \neq 0$ since $D \neq 0$
$\Rightarrow$ only trivial solution is possible
