MCQ
If $A$ is a symmetric matrix and $B$ is a skew-symmetrix matrix such that $A + B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
2&3\\
5&{ - 1}
\end{array}} \right]$ , then $AB$ is equal to
  • A
    $\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
    4&{ - 2}\\
    1&{ - 4}
    \end{array}} \right]$
  • $\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
    4&{ - 2}\\
    { - 1}&{ - 4}
    \end{array}} \right]$
  • C
    $\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
    { - 4}&2\\
    1&4
    \end{array}} \right]$
  • D
    $\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
    { - 4}&{ - 2}\\
    { - 1}&4
    \end{array}} \right]$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
4&{ - 2}\\
{ - 1}&{ - 4}
\end{array}} \right]$
b
$A = A',B = B'$

$A + B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
2&3\\
5&{ - 1}
\end{array}} \right]\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,....\left( 1 \right)$

$A' + B' = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
2&5\\
3&{ - 1}
\end{array}} \right]\,\,\,$

$A - B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
2&5\\
3&{ - 1}
\end{array}} \right]\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,.....\left( 2 \right)$

After addding equation $(1)$ and $(2)$

$A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
2&4\\
4&{ - 1}
\end{array}} \right]\,,B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
0&{ - 1}\\
1&0
\end{array}} \right]\,$

$AB = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
4&{ - 2}\\
{ - 1}&{ - 4}
\end{array}} \right]$
