If A is an orthogonal matrix of order 3 and B= [ array ccc 1 & 2 & 3 -3 & 0 & 2 2 & 5 & 0 array ] , then which of the following is/are correct? 1. | AB |= 47 2. AB = BA Select the correct answer using the code given below :
Options
- A1 only
- B2 only
- CBoth 1 and 2
- DNeither 1 nor 2
Correct answer
A. 1 only
Step-by-step solution
The determinent of a orthogonal matrix is always 1 aligned & | A |= 1 & ~B = [ array ccc 1 & 2 & 3 -3 & 0 & 2 2 & 5 & 0 array ] & | B |=-10-2(-4)+3(-15) & =-47 & | AB |=| A || B | & =( 1)(-47) & = 47 aligned
