Class 12 Maths · Matrices · Short Answer #51

For A=\(\begin{bmatrix}1 & -1\\-1 & 1\end{bmatrix}\), find k such that A²=kA.

✅ Step-by-Step Solution

Final Answer: k=2
  1. Compute A²=[[2,−2],[−2,2]].
  2. This is exactly 2A; the nonzero (1,1) entry gives k=2.
  3. Thus k=2.

📋 CBSE Stepwise Marking Scheme

  • [0.5 marks] Compute A²=[[2,−2],[−2,2]].
  • [1 mark] This is exactly 2A; the nonzero (1,1) entry gives k=2.
  • [0.5 marks] Thus k=2.
