Question

If A=(abcd) and I2=(1001), then show that A2(a+d)A=(bcad)I2.

Open in App
Solution

Consider A2=A×A
=(abcd)(abcd)=(a2+bcab+bdac+cdbc+d2) ............. (1)
Now, (a+d)A=(a+d)(abcd)
=(a2+adab+bdac+cdad+d2) ............. (2)
From (1) and (2) we get,
A2(a+d)A=(a2+bcab+bdac+cdbc+d2)(a2+adab+bdac+cdad+d2)
=(bcad00bcad)=(bcad)(1001)
Thus, A2(a+d)A=(bcad)I2.
