11 Let unc Here we have chosen B as the lower triangular portion of A , and C is of course B — A. We are given that unc To four places of decimals we now find unc and to this order of accuracy , unc is null .
12 If A ( which is necessarily square ) is of order n , then clearly the characteristic equation may be written unc The n roots of this equation , say unc are called eigenvalues .
13 Let A be partitioned in the form unc Here A is of order n , B of order m , E of order n — m ; C and D are in general rectangular .

15 The canonical form of A is thus unc where I is of order r .
16 It is easy to find , because it is usually visible with the naked eye at about magnitude 5 , and is in the same binocular field with Beta ; to either side of it are Tau ( 5.1 ) and Sigma ( 4.9 ) , which act as good comparisons , though Tau is of type K and has been suspected of slight variability .
17 Diphda is of type K , and is obviously orange ; it has been suspected of variability , but is awkward to estimate , because there are no suitable comparison stars anywhere near it .
18 Delta is of type K , and with × 7 or higher magnification is very clearly orange ; it is in the same field as Pi ( 4.4 ) which is a red star of class M. Epsilon ( 3.7 ) is one of the very closest stars , at 10.7 light-years .
19 It is of type D , and can be shown to be part of the Taub-NUT solution in the Taub region where there are two space-like Killing vectors .

23 The main component is of type M , and is one of the largest stars known .
24 The only object of any binocular interest is the long-period variable R Horologii , which may reach magnitude 4.7 at maximum although it drops to below 14 at minimum ; the period is 403 days , and the spectrum is of type M , so that the star is very red .
25 Alpha is not hard to find , because it is decidedly isolated and forms an equilateral triangle with Regulus and Pollux ; it is of type M , and very red as seen with any binoculars .
26 The brighter of the two ( 4.5 ) is of type M , and its obvious redness makes a good contrast with its companion ( 5.5 ) , which is white .
27 L2 Puppis is a semi-regular variable with a range of from 3.4 to 6.2 , so that it is almost always visible with the naked eye and is well within binocular range even at minimum ; it is of type M , and clearly orange .
28 If the source direction makes an angle θ with the baseline , which is of length d , then the path difference to the two dishes is d cos θ and the phase lag between their signals is at a wavelength λ , and in terms of frequency v this becomes .
29 This last is otherwise obvious ; A has only p columns , so that AB , of order ( n × n ) , has at most p linearly independent columns ; i.e. it is of rank p at most , and so must have at least n — p zero eigenvalues .
30 We first note that if A is of rank r , then so are
