Mathematics Question on Matrices
Let A and B be 2 × 2 matrices, then which of the following is correct?
A
det(A + B) + det(A - B) = 2 det(A) + 2 det(B)
B
det(A + B) + det(A - B) = det(A) + det(B)
C
det(A + B) + det(A - B) = det(A) - det(B)
D
det(A + B) + det(A - B) = 2 det(A) -2 det(B)
Answer
det(A + B) + det(A - B) = 2 det(A) + 2 det(B)
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is(A): det(A + B) + det(A - B) = 2 det(A) + 2 det(B)
