If the matrix `A=[5 2x y z-3 4t-7]` is a symmetric matrix, find `x ,\ y ,\ z` and `t` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`A= [[5,2,x],[y,z,-3],[4,t,-7]]`
`Rightarrow A^T = [[5,y,4],[2,z,t],[x,-3,-7]]`
Since, `A` is symmetric matrix. So, `(A^T) = A`
`Rightarrow [[5,y,4],[2,z,t],[x,-3,-7]] = [[5,2,x],[y,z,-3],[4,t,-7]]`
The corresponding elements of two equal matrices are equal.
So we get,
`Rightarrow x=4`
`Rightarrow y=2`
