Solution
The correct option is
B
[
i
0
i
−
i
]
A
2
+
I
=
0
I is identity matrix
A
2
=
−
I
Clearly A is a matrix with complex number
From the option only option B has imaginary values verifying option B
A
=
[
i
0
i
−
i
]
A
2
=
[
i

i
−

[

[
i

=
[

=
−
I
⇒
A
2
=
−
I
⇒
A
2
+
I
=
0
Hence option B correct
Option A represents I and option D represents -I which on squaring will give I
Hence option A and D are incorrect
Option C
A
=
[
1
2
−
1

A

[

≠

I
Hence option C is incorrect
