Q45 / 155 · WBJEE 2017 · Mathematics
Let $P$ be the set of all non-singular matrices of order 3 over $R$ and $Q$ be the set of all orthogonal matrices of order 3 over $R .$ Then,
- A$P$ is proper subset of $Q$
- Correct answerB$Q$ is proper subset of $P$
- CNeither $P$ is proper subset of $Q$ nor $Q$ is proper subset of $P$
- D$P \cap Q=\phi$, the void set
Solution
All the orthogonal matrix are non-singular matrix. $\therefore Q$ is proper subset of $P$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
