Question
Given an example of two non-zero 2×2 matrices A and B such that AB = 0.
✓
Answer
Let, $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&0\end{bmatrix}\neq0$ $\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}\neq0$ $\text{AB}=\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&0\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}$ $=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\0&0\end{bmatrix}$ $=0$ So, $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&0\end{bmatrix}$ $\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}$
