Solution

i We have, A=3275 and B=4632AB=18224352AB=-10Since, AB0Hence, AB is invertible. Let Cij be the cofactor of ain in AB=aijC11=52 , C12=-43, C21 =-22 and C22=18adjAB=52-43-2218T=52-22-4318AB-1=-11052-22-4318 ...1Now, B=4632B=-10Since, B0Hence, B is invertible. Let Cij be the cofactor of ain in B=aijC11=2 , C12=-3, C21 =-6 and C22=4adjB=2-3-64T=2-6-34B-1=-1102-6-34A=1Since, A0Hence, A is invertible. Let Cij be the cofactor of ain in A=aijC11=5 , C12=-7, C21 =-2 and C22=3adjA=5-7-23T=5-2-73A-1=5-2-73Now, B-1A-1=-11052-22-4318 ...2From eq. 1 and 2, we haveAB-1=B-1A-1Hence verified.ii We have, A=2153 and B=4534AB=11142937Now,AB=1Since, AB0Hence, AB is invertible. Let Cij be the cofactor of ain in AB=aijC11=37 , C12=-29, C21 =-14 and C22=11adj(AB)=37-14-2911AB-1=37-14-2911 ...1B=1Since, B0Hence, B is invertible. Let Cij be the cofactor of ain in B=aijC11=4 , C12=-3, C21 =-5 and C22=4adjB=4-5-34B-1=4-5-34A=1Since, A0Hence, A is invertible. Let Cij be the cofactor of ain in A=aijC11=3 , C12=-5, C21 =-1 and C22=2adjA=3-1-52A-1=3-1-52Now, B-1A-1=37-14-2911 ...2From eq. 1 and 2, we haveAB-1=B-1A-1Hence verified.
(AB)1=B1 A1 (AB)1=B1 A1(AB)1=B1 A1
