In (P ) and (Q ) are square matrices such that (P²⁰⁰⁶=0 ) and (P Q=P+Q ), then ( det (Q) ) will be
Options
- A0
- B1 only
- C-1 only
- D1
Correct answer
A. 0
Step-by-step solution
( array llll & P²⁰⁰⁶ =O and P Q=P+Q & P²⁰⁰⁶ Q =P²⁰⁰⁶+Q P²⁰⁰⁵ & O =O+Q P²⁰⁰⁵ & P²⁰⁰⁵ Q =O & det (P²⁰⁰⁵ Q ) =O & det P²⁰⁰⁵( det Q) =O det Q=O array )
