Let a be a matrix of order `2xx2` such that `A^(2)=O`.
`A^(2)-(a+d)A+(ad-bc)I` is equal to

A

`I`

B

`O`

C

`-I`

D

none of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Let
`A=[(a,b),(c,d)]`
`implies A^(2)-(a+d)A+(ad-bc)I`
`=[(a,b),(c,d)][(a,b),(c,d)]-(a+d)[(a,b),(c,d)]+(ad-bc)[(1,0),(0,1)]`
`=[(a^(2)+bc,ab+bd),(ac+cd,bc+d^(2))]-[(a^(2)+ad,ab+bd),(ac+cd,bc+d^(2))]+[(a^(2)+ad,ab+bd),(ac+cd,ad+d^(2))]`
`=O`
