Match the LIST-I with LIST-II
| LIST-I | LIST-II | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| A. | A matrix which is both symmetric and skew symmetric | I. | symmetric matrix |
| B. | All positive integral powers of a symmetric matrix | II. | unit matrix |
| C. | Positive odd integral powers of a skew-symmetric matrix | III. | null matrix |
| D. | A square matrix with | IV. | skew-symmetric matrix |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
✅ Correct Option: 2
A: and force , the null matrix (III).
B: if then , so powers stay symmetric (I).
C: for , , which is for odd , so skew-symmetric (IV).
D: ones on the diagonal and zeros elsewhere is the unit matrix (II).
