MCQ
If $A$ and $B$ are two matrices such that $A B=B$ and $B A=A, A^2+B^2$ is equal to :
  • A
    $2AB$
  • B
    $2BA$
  • ✓
    $A + B$
  • D
    $AB$
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
$A + B$
Given $AB = A$ and $BA = B,$ then
$\Rightarrow \text{BAB}=B^2$ and $\text{ABA}=A^2$
$\Rightarrow B A=B^2$ and $A B=A^2$
$\Rightarrow B=B^2$ and $A=A^2$
$\Rightarrow A^2+B^2=A+B$
