Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer: Using the diagram provided the question can not be answered.

Discussion:

The 3 angles of a triangle add up to 180. From the diagram

73 + ( 6x + 4) + ( 8y -7) = 180

This equation has two variables, x and y, and we can't solve it as such. BUT if the third angle was intended to be (8x -7), an assumption totally, then

73 + ( 6x + 4 ) + ( 8x -7) = 180 or

73 + (6x + 8x) + (4 -7) = 180 or

73 + 14x -3 = 180 or

14x + 70 = 180 or

14x = 180 -70 = 110

x = 110/14 = 55/7

Thank you,

MrB

Is the inverse of a symmetric matrix also symmetric?

Ahat [919]

Yes, the inverse of a symmetric matrix is also symmetric.

Take the symmetric matrix A, we have:

$AA^{-1} = I$

and

$I^{T} = I$

This gives:

$(AA^{-1})^{T} = AA^{-1}$

Using the properties:

$AA^{-1} = A^{-1}A$ and $(AA^{-1})^{T} = (A^{-1})^{T}A^{T}$

We get:

$(A^{-1})^{T}A^{T} = A^{-1}A$

Since $A^{T} = A$ , we can perform the substitution to get:

$(A^{-1})^{T}A = A^{-1}A$

Multiplying by $A^{-1}$ on both sides:

$(A^{-1})^{T}AA^{-1} = A^{-1}AA^{-1}$

$(A^{-1})^{T}I = A^{-1}I$

$(A^{-1})^{T} = A^{-1}$

Proving that the inverse of a symmetric matrix is also symmetric.
