USING MATRICES IN REAL LIFE

The Bermuda Triangle is a large trianglular region in the Atlantic ocean. Many ships and airplanes have been lost in this region. The triangle is formed by imaginary lines connecting Bermuda, Puerto Rico, and Miami, Florida. Use a determinant to estimate the area of the Bermuda Triangle.

Miami (0,0)

Bermuda (938,454)

Puerto Rico (900,-518)

SOLUTION

The approximate coordinates of the Bermuda Triangle’s three vertices are: (938,454), (900,-518), and (0,0). So the area of the region is as follows:

Area = ±1

938 454 1

900 −518 1

Area = ±1

2[(−458,884 + 0 + 0) − (0 + 0 + 408,600)]

Area = 447,242

Hence, area of the Bermuda Triangle is about 447,000 square miles.

The Golden Triangle is a large triangular region in the India.The Taj Mahal is one of the many wonders that lie within the boundaries of this triangle. The triangle is formed by the imaginary lines that connect the cities of New Delhi, Jaipur, and Agra. Use a determinant to estimate the area of the Golden Triangle. The coordinates given are measured in miles.

Jaipur (0,0)

New Delhi (100,120)

Agra (140,20)

SOLUTION

The approximate coordinates of the Golden Triangle’s three vertices are: (100,120), (140,20), and (0,0). So the area of the region is as follows:

Area = ±1

100 120 1

140 20 1

Area = ±1

2[(2000 + 0 + 0) − (0 + 0 +16800)]

Area = 7400

Hence, area of the Golden Triangle is about 7400 square miles.

Black neck stilts are birds that live throughout Florida and surrounding areas but breed mostly in the triangular region shown on the map. Use a determinant to estimate the area of this region. The coordinates given are measured in miles.

(35,220)

(112,56)

SOLUTION

The approximate coordinates of the Golden Triangle’s three vertices are: (35,220), (112,56), and (0,0). So the area of the region is as follows:

Area = ±1

35 220 1

112 56 1

Area = ±1

2[(1960 + 0 + 0) − (0 + 0 + 24640)]

Area =11340

Hence, area of the region is about 11340 square miles.

CRAMER”S RULE FOR A 22 SYSTEM

Let A be the co-efficient matrix of the linear system: ax+by= e & cx+dy= f.

IF det A ≠0, then the system has exactly one solution. The solution is:

The numerators for x and y are the determinant of the matrices formed by using the column of constants as replacements for the coefficients of x and y, respectively.

EXAMPLE

Use cramer’s rule to solve this system:

8x+5y = 2 2x-4y = -10

SOLUTION

Solution: Evaluate the determinant of the coefficient matrix

2 −4= −32 −10 = −42

CRAMER”S RULE FOR A 33 SYSTEM

Let A be the co-efficient matrix of the linear system: ax+by+cz= j, dx+ey+fz= k, and gx+hy+iz=l.

IF det A ≠0, then the system has exactly one solution. The solution is:

detA, y =

C + 4H = 163C+ 8H + 3O = 92 2H + O =18

Evaluate the determinant of the coefficient matrix.
