Solution

The correct option is A (b1c2b2c1)(a1b2a2b1),(c1a2c2a1)(a1b2a2b1)
The following table is useful to remember the solutions using the method of cross multiplication:

The solution is given by:

xb1c2b2c1=yc1a2c2a1=1a1b2a2b1

xb1c2b2c1=yc1a2c2a1=1a1b2a2b1

Therefore, x=(b1c2b2c1)(a1b2a2b1) and y=(c1a2c2a1)(a1b2a2b1).
