Which of the following options is/ are TRUE if $\operatorname{det}(M) \neq 0$ ?
Consider the matrix $A$ below:
$$ A=\left[\begin{array}{llll} 2 & 3 & 4 & 5 \\ 0 & 6 & 7 & 8 \\ 0 & 0 & \alpha & \beta \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & \gamma \end{array}\right] $$
For which of the following combinations of $\alpha, \beta$ and $\gamma$, is the rank of $A$ at least three?
(i) $\alpha=0$ and $\beta=\gamma \neq 0$

Let $\mathbb{R}$ and $\mathbb{R}^3$ denote the set of real numbers and the three dimensional vector space over it, respectively. The value of $\alpha$ for which the set of vectors
$$ \{ [2 \ -3 \ \alpha], \ [3 \ -1 \ 3], \ [1 \ -5 \ 7] \}$$
does not form a basis of $\mathbb{R}^3$ is _______.
Let the sets of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a matrix B be $$\{ {\lambda _k}|1 \le k \le n\} $$ and $$\{ {v_k}|1 \le k \le n\} $$, respectively. For any invertible matrix P, the sets of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the matrix A, where $$B = {P^{ - 1}}AP$$, respectively, are
