If A and B are invertible matrices then which of the following statement is NOT correct?
If A and B are invertible matrices then which of the following statement is NOT correct?
Solution
✅ Correct Option: 2
For invertible matrices A and B, examining each statement:
Option 1: adj A = |A|A⁻¹
The relationship between inverse and adjoint is:
Multiplying both sides by |A|:
This statement is correct.
Option 2:
The inverse does not distribute over addition.
Counterexample using and :
However:
Since , this statement is NOT correct.
Option 3:
From the identity :
This statement is correct.
Option 4:
Verification:
This statement is correct.
Therefore, Option 2 is NOT correct.
