MCQ
From the matrix equation $AB = AC$ we can conclude that $B = C$, provided
  • A
    A is singular.
  • A is non-singular
  • C
    A is symmetric.
  • D
    A is square

Answer

Correct option: B.
A is non-singular
(B) $AB = AC$
$\Rightarrow A ^{-1} AB = A ^{-1} AC$
$\Rightarrow IB = IC$
$\Rightarrow B = C$
$\therefore \quad$ For $B = C , A ^{-1}$ must exist
$\Rightarrow A$ is non-singular
