  1. Consider the matrix A =
    50
    70
    7080

    whose eigenvectors corresponding to eigenvalues λ1 and λ2 are

    respectively. The value of x1 Tx2 is ________.
    1. 2
    2. 1
    3. 0
    4. -1
Correct Option: C

A =
50
70
7080

Eigen values of A are λ1 , λ2
λ1 + λ2 = 130
λ1λ2 = - 900
Given that X1 =
70
λ1-50

X2 =
λ2
-80
70

X1TX2 = [70λ1 - 50]
λ2
-80
70

= 70 λ2 –5600 + 70 λ1 – 3500
= 70 (λ1 + λ2) – 9100
= 70 (130) – 9100 = 0
