Question
$A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}5 & 4 \\ 1 & 3\end{array}\right], C_1 \leftrightarrow C_2 ; B=\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & 1 \\ 4 & 5\end{array}\right], R_1 \leftrightarrow R_2$. What do you observe?

Answer

$A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}5 & 4 \\1 & 3\end{array}\right]$

By $C _1 \leftrightarrow C _2$, we get,

$\begin{aligned}& A \sim\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & 5 \\3 & 1\end{array}\right] \\& B=\left[\begin{array}{ll}3 & 1 \\4 & 5\end{array}\right]\end{aligned}$

By $R_1 \leftrightarrow R_2$, we get,

$B \sim\left[\begin{array}{ll}4 & 5 \\3 & 1\end{array}\right] \ldots(2)$

From (1) and (2), we observe that the new matrices are equal.
