Let A and B be two non-singular matrices...

Let A and B be two non-singular matrices such
that `A ne I, B^(2) = I and AB = BA^(2)` , where I is the identity
matrix, the least value of k such that ` A^(k) = I 1 is

A

`31`

B

`32`

C

`64`

D

`63`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`(d)` `A^(6)=IimpliesBA^(6)=B`
`implies(BA)A^(5)=B`
`impliesAB^(2)A^(5)=B`
`impliesAB(AB^(2))A^(4)=B`
`impliesA^(2)B^(4)A^(4)=B`
Proceeding like this we get
`A^(6)B^(64)=BimpliesB^(64)=B`
`impliesB^(63)=I`
`impliesk=63`
