Let $$x$$ and $$y$$ be two vectors in a $$3-$$ dimensional space and $$ < x,y > $$ denote their dot product. Then the determinant det $$\left[ {\matrix{ { < x,x > } & { < x,y > } \cr { < y,x > } & { < y,y > } \cr } } \right] = $$ ______.

If $$A = \left[ {\matrix{ { - 3} & 2 \cr { - 1} & 0 \cr } } \right]$$ then $$A$$ satisfies the relation

If $$A = \left[ {\matrix{ { - 3} & 2 \cr { - 1} & 0 \cr } } \right]\,$$ then $${A^9}$$ equals

$$X = {\left[ {\matrix{ {{x_1}} & {{x_2}} & {.......\,{x_n}} \cr } } \right]^T}$$ is an $$n$$-tuple non-
zero vector. The $$n\,\, \times \,\,n$$ matrix $$V = X{X^T}$$
