Question

If A=1-12-1, B=a 1b-1 and (A + B)2 = A2 + B2, values of a and b are
(a) a = 4, b = 1
(b) a = 1, b = 4
(c) a = 0, b = 4
(d) a = 2, b = 4

Solution


(b) a = 1, b = 4

Here,A+B2=A2+B2A2+AB+BA+B2=A2+B2AB+BA=OAB=-BA1-12-1a1b-1=-a1b-11-12-1a-b22a-b3=-a+2-a-1b-2-b+1a-b22a-b3=-a-2a+1b+2b-1The corresponding elements of two equal matrices are equal.a+1=2 and b-1=3 a=1 and b=4
