If the matrix is symmetric, then is equal to
Solution
✅ Correct Option: 1
A symmetric matrix satisfies the condition that element at position (i,j) equals element at position (j,i).
For the matrix to be symmetric:
Element (1,2) = Element (2,1):
Element (1,3) = Element (3,1):
Element (2,3) = Element (3,2):
From the symmetry conditions:
... (1)
... (2)
... (3)
Adding equations (1) and (2):
Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2):
The expression becomes:
Therefore,
