Previous Year Question (PYQs)



$Q30.$ If the rank of the matrix \[ \begin{bmatrix} a & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & b & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & c \end{bmatrix} \] is $2$, then find the correct condition.





Solution

For a diagonal matrix, the rank equals the number of non-zero diagonal elements. If the rank is $2$, exactly two of $a, b, c$ must be non-zero and one must be zero. Thus, the possible condition is $ab \neq 0,\; c = 0$.
