-x + 2y = 4
2y = x + 4
y = 1/2x + 2.....slope here is 1/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So the slope we need is -2 (see how I flipped the slope and changed the sign)

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(-2,1)...x = -2 and y = 1
now we sub and solve for b, the y int
1 = -2(-2) + b
1 = 4 + b
1 - 4 = b
-3 = b

so ur perpendicular line is : y = -2x - 3

A square matrix A is said to be idempotent iff A2 = A. (i) Show that if A is idempotent, then so is I − A. (ii) Show that if A i
muminat

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A is a square matrix and A is idempotent

A^2 = A

Consider I-A

i) (I-A)^2 = (I-A).(I-A)\\= I^2 -2A.I+A^2\\= I-2A+A\\=I-A

It follows that I-A is also idempotent

ii) Consider the matrix 2A-I

(2A-I).(2A-I)=\\4A^2-4AI+I^2\\= 4A-4A+I\\=I

So it follows that 2A-I matrix is its own inverse.
