MCQ
If $A$ is a skew symmetric matrix, then $∣A∣$ is:
  • A
    $11$
  • B
    $-1$
  • ✓
    $0$
  • D
    None of these
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
$0$
Since the skew symmetric matrix consist of elements of opposite sign at opposite side of matrix diagonal with all.
the diagonal elements as zero therefore the determinant of skew symmetric matrix is zero.
