Q.26 The values of ‘a’ and ‘b’ such that the surface a x2 – byz = (a + 2)x is orthogonal to the surface 4x2y + z3 = 4
at the point (1, –1, 2), are respectively
(a) a = 2, b = 1 (b) a = 2.5, b = 1
(c) a = 3, b = 1 (d) a = 4, b = 1

φ1 = a x2 – byz – (a + 2)x
∇ φ1 = [2ax − (a + 2)]iˆ − bzjˆ − bykˆ
∇ φ1(1, –1, 2) = (a − 2)iˆ − 2bjˆ + bkˆ
AD

φ2 = 4x2y + z3 – 4
∇ φ2 = 8xy iˆ + 4x2jˆ + 3z 2kˆ
∇ φ2(1, –1, 2) = −8iˆ + 4jˆ + 12kˆ
Since surfaces are orthogonal to each other at (1, –1, 2)
∇ φ1⋅∇ φ2 = 0
M

[(a − 2)iˆ − 2bjˆ + bkˆ] ⋅ [−8iˆ + 4jˆ + 12kˆ] = 0

–8(a – 2) – 8b + 12b = 0 ... (i)
Also point (1, –1, 2) lies on the surface.
⇒ a × 1 + 2b = (a + 2)1
b = 1
Putting this in equation 1, we get,
–8(a – 2) – 8 + 12 = 0

⎣ 2 3 ⎦
The value of k is ________.
27. (–15)
The characteristic equation of matrix A is
A − λI = 0
1− λ 4
= 0
2 3−λ
λ2 – 4λ – 5 = 0
or A2 – 4A – 5I = 0

SY
Now the given polynomial can be written as,
A5 – 4A4 – 7A3 + 11A2 – 2A + kI = (A3 – 2A + 3I) (A2 – 4A – 5I) + (k + 15)I
Since, A2 – 4A – 5I = 0
For the given polynomial to be zero,
k + 15 = 0
k = –15
