Choose the correct statement

A. If any two rows or any two columns are identical or proportional, then value of determinant is Zero.

B. Minor of an element aija_{ij} of the determinant of matrix A is the determinant obtained by deleting ithi^{th} row and jthj^{th} column

C. If A=[1567]A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 5 \\ 6 & 7 \end{bmatrix}, then A is Skew-symmetric matrix

D. If A=[1245]A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 \\ 4 & 5 \end{bmatrix}, then (A+A′)(A + A') is Symmetric matrix

E. If ∣A∣=0|A| = 0, then A is non-singular matrix

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 2

A is true (standard determinant property). B is true (definition of minor). C is false (not skew-symmetric). D is true (A+A′A+A' is always symmetric). E is false (∣A∣=0|A|=0 means singular). Correct statements: A, B, D.
