MCQ
If $A=\left[a_{i j}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & -1 \\ -3 & 4 \\ 1 & 2\end{array}\right]$ and $B=\left[b_{i j}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2 & 3 & -5 \\ 1 & 4 & 9 \\ 0 & 7 & -2\end{array}\right]$, then value of $a_{11} b_{11}+a_{22} b_{22}$ is
  • A
    8
  • 20
  • C
    16
  • D
    24

Answer

Correct option: B.
20
(b) : We have, $A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}2 & -1 \\ -3 & 4 \\ 1 & 2\end{array}\right]$ and $B=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}2 & 3 & -5 \\ 1 & 4 & 9 \\ 0 & 7 & -2\end{array}\right]$
Here, $a_{11}=2, a_{22}=4, b_{11}=2, b_{22}=4$
$
\therefore \quad a_{11} b_{11}+a_{22} b_{22}=2(2)+4(4)=4+16=20
$
