If the square of the matrix [(alpha,beta...

If the square of the matrix `[(alpha,beta),(gamma,-alpha)]` is the unit matrix of order 2, then `alpha, beta` and `gamma` should satisfy the relation.

A

`1-alpha^(2)+beta gamma=0`

B

`alpha^(2)+beta gamma-1=0`

C

`1+alpha^(2)+beta gamma=0`

D

`1-alpha^(2)-beta gamma=0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

We have
`[(alpha,beta),(gamma,-alpha)][(alpha,beta),(gamma,-alpha)]=[(1,0),(0,1)]`
or `[(alpha^(2)+beta gamma,0),(0,alpha^(2)+beta gamma)]=[(1,0),(0,1)]`
or `alpha^(2)+beta gamma-1=0`
