Yea.I meant orthogonal.sorry.

Hi, for Q. 14 in Section 7.3, I calculated the determinant to be 0 = [-(lambda)][(1-lambda)^2]. Therefore, I got three eigenvalues of: lambda = 0, lambda = 1, lambda = 1. Which led to an eigenbasis of: [0 1 0], [1 -5 0], [0 2 1].  
Thank you though for the answer.

Can anyone please help me in the question no. 25 of exercise 7.3? I am having a lot of trouble in comprehending how to calculate the multiplicity.

The geometric multiplicity of a matrix is directly related to the no. of independent eigenvectors in the eigen basis. Since, the no. of independent vectors is 3 (column wise), therefore, the geometric multiplicity is 3.

Hey.Can anyone please explain me the 20th question of exercise 7.1. I am not able to understand how to interpret the question. Thanks

I believe that there would be no eigenvalue corresponding to the rotation in about e3 in R3 ! However, I would recommend asking the question to Prof. Kummini in this regard !

Hey I think the eigenvalue would be 1 since any vector on the axis spanned by e3 would be an eigen vector !
