If a, b, c are non-zero real numbers, then the inverse of the matrix `A=[{:(a,0,0),(0,b,0),(0,0,c):}]`is equal to

A

`[{:(a^(-1),0,0),(0,b^(-1),0),(0,0,c^(-1)):}]`

B

`(1)/(abc)[{:(a^(-1),0,0),(0,b^(-1),0),(0,0,c^(-1)):}]`

C

`(1)/(abc)[{:(1,0,0),(0,1,0),(0,0,1):}]`

D

`(1)/(abc)[{:(a,0,0),(0,b,0),(0,0,c):}]`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`A=[{:(a,0,0),(0,b,0),(0,0,c):}]`
`A^(-1)=[{:((1)/(a),0,0),(0,(1)/(b),0),(0,0,(1)/(c)):}]=[{:(a^(-1),0,0),(0,b^(-1),0),(0,0,c^(-1)):}]`
