Let $A, B, C, D$ be square real matrices such that $C^T = DAB$,$D^T = ABC$,and $S = ABCD$. Then $S^2$ is equal to:

If $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 2 \\ 0 & 2 & 1 \\ 2 & 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix}$,prove that $A^{3} - 6A^{2} + 7A + 2I = 0$.

If the matrix $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 & 0 \\ 3 & 0 & -1 \end{bmatrix}$ satisfies the equation $A^{20} + \alpha A^{19} + \beta A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 4 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$ for some real numbers $\alpha$ and $\beta$,then $\beta - \alpha$ is equal to ........ .

Let $A$, $B$ and $C$ be three $2 \times 2$ matrices with real entries such that $B = (I + A)^{-1}$ and $A + C = I$. If $BC = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -5 \\ -1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}$ and $CB \begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ x_2 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 12 \\ -6 \end{bmatrix}$, then $x_1 + x_2$ is

Let $\alpha$ be a root of the equation $(a-c)x^2 + (b-a)x + (c-b) = 0$,where $a, b, c$ are distinct real numbers such that the matrix $\begin{bmatrix} \alpha^2 & \alpha & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \\ a & b & c \end{bmatrix}$ is singular. Then the value of $\frac{(a-c)^2}{(b-a)(c-b)} + \frac{(b-a)^2}{(a-c)(c-b)} + \frac{(c-b)^2}{(a-c)(b-a)}$ is:

Let $\quad P_1=I=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right], \quad P_2=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 0\end{array}\right], \quad P_3=\left[\begin{array}{lll}0 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right], \quad P_4=\left[\begin{array}{lll}0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 0\end{array}\right], \quad P_5=\left[\begin{array}{lll}0 & 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0\end{array}\right], \quad P_6=\left[\begin{array}{lll}0 & 0 & 1 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 0\end{array}\right]$ and $X=\sum_{k=1}^6 P_k \left[\begin{array}{lll}2 & 1 & 3 \\ 1 & 0 & 2 \\ 3 & 2 & 1\end{array}\right] P_k^{\top}$ where $P_k^{\top}$ denotes the transpose of the matrix $P_k$. Then which of the following options is/are correct?
$(1)$ $X - 30I$ is an invertible matrix
$(2)$ The sum of diagonal entries of $X$ is $18$
$(3)$ If $X \left[\begin{array}{l}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]=\alpha\left[\begin{array}{l}1 \\ 1 \\ 1\end{array}\right]$,then $\alpha=30$
$(4)$ $X$ is a symmetric matrix
