MATLAB (matrix laboratory) is a multi-paradigm numerical computing environment and proprietary programming language developed by Math Works. MATLAB allows matrix manipulations, plotting of functions and data, implementation of algorithms, creation of user interfaces, and interfacing with programs written in other languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, Fortran and Python. MATLAB integrates computation, visualization, and programming in an easy to-use environment where problems and solutions are expressed in familiar mathematical notation. Typical uses include:
A Scalar λ is called an Eigenvalue of the N x N Matrix A is there is a Nontrivial Solution Such an X is called an Eigenvector corresponding to the Eigenvalue λ. Geometrically, an Eigenvector, corresponding to a real nonzero Eigenvalue, points in a direction that is stretched by the transformation and the Eigenvalue is the factor by which it is stretched. If the Eigenvalue is negative, the direction is reversed.
a) A = 8 8 2 4 3 2 3 4 1
Step 1: Making the matrix and naming it. Step 2: Finding the Eigen values using the function eig(). Step 3: Finding the Eigen Vectors:
b) A =
Step 1: Making the matrix and naming it. Step 2: Finding the Eigen values using the function eig(). Step 3: Finding the Eigen Vectors:
Step 4: Separating the Vectors and Normalizing them:
Answer: Eigen Values: (0.58579,2.00000,3.41421) Corresponding Eigen Vectors: [(1, 1 .4 1421 , 1 ), (1, 4.415 * 10-^16 , - 1 ), (1, 1.4142, 1 )]
