Question: a) Show that the matrices A = 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 and B = 29 31 37 41 43 47
a) Show that the matrices
A =
2 3 5
7 11 13
17 19 23
and
B =
29 31 37
41 43 47
53 59 61
are not similar.
b)
Show that the matrices A =
7 2
24 7
and B =
0 1
1 0
are similar: find an invertible
matrix S such that B = S^1AS. (Hint: first show that A and B are both similar to the
same diagonal matrix D, then find S.)
