Let $$\alpha $$ be a root of the equation x² + x + 1 = 0 and the
matrix A = $${1 \over {\sqrt 3 }}\left[ {\matrix{ 1 & 1 & 1 \cr 1 & \alpha & {{\alpha ^2}} \cr 1 & {{\alpha ^2}} & {{\alpha ^4}} \cr } } \right]$$

then the matrix A³¹ is equal to

A value of $$\theta \in \left( {0,{\pi \over 3}} \right)$$, for which
$$\left| {\matrix{ {1 + {{\cos }^2}\theta } & {{{\sin }^2}\theta } & {4\cos 6\theta } \cr {{{\cos }^2}\theta } & {1 + {{\sin }^2}\theta } & {4\cos 6\theta } \cr {{{\cos }^2}\theta } & {{{\sin }^2}\theta } & {1 + 4\cos 6\theta } \cr } } \right| = 0$$, is :

If $$B = \left[ {\matrix{ 5 & {2\alpha } & 1 \cr 0 & 2 & 1 \cr \alpha & 3 & { - 1} \cr } } \right]$$ is the inverse of a 3 × 3 matrix A, then the sum of all values of $$\alpha $$ for which det(A) + 1 = 0, is :

If A is a symmetric matrix and B is a skew-symmetric matrix such that A + B = $$\left[ {\matrix{ 2 & 3 \cr 5 & { - 1} \cr } } \right]$$, then AB is equal to :
