Statement-1 (Assertion and Statement- 2 (Reason) Each of these questions also has four alternative choices, only one of which is the correct answer. You have to select the correct choice as given below. Statement- 1 If A, B, C are matrices such that abs(A_(3xx3))=3, abs(B_(3xx3))= -1 and abs(C_(2xx2)) = 2, abs(2 ABC) = - 12. Statement - 2 For matrices A, B, C of the same order abs(ABC) = abs(A) abs(B) abs(C).
