(a)
Yes, since

(b)
No, consider the matrix

which is strictly diagonally dominant but
is not.
(c)
No, consider the matrices

which are both strictly diagonally dominant but

is not.
(d)
No, consider the matrix

which is strictly diagonally dominant but

is not.

(a)
A is singular when
since
(b)
A is never strictly diagonally dominant, regardless of
the value of
(c)
A is symmetric for all
(d)
After 2 steps of Gaussian elimination, we obtain the upper triangular matrix

Hence,

using the obvious definition for
the square-root of a diagonal matrix, so we also have
