If a2 = i, where i is the identity matrix, which matrix correctly represents matrix a?

Sagot :

[tex]A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-2\\4&-3\end{array}\right][/tex]

We can find the A as shown below:

Given A^2=I

We know that A^2=A×A

And [tex]I=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right][/tex]

So, [tex]A^2=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right][/tex]

Let [tex]A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-2\\4&-3\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]A^2=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-2\\4&-3\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-2\\4&-3\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]A^2=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}9-8&-6+6\\12-12&-8+9\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]A^2=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&0\\0&1\end{array}\right][/tex]

Hence, [tex]A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&-2\\4&-3\end{array}\right][/tex]

Hence, option C is correct
