MCQ
If $A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}i&0\\0&{ - i}\end{array}} \right],B = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}0&i\\i&0\end{array}} \right]$, where $i = \sqrt { - 1} $, then the correct relation is
  • A
    $A + B = O$
  • ${A^2} = {B^2}$
  • C
    $A - B = O$
  • D
    ${A^2} + {B^2} = O$

Answer

Correct option: B.
${A^2} = {B^2}$
b
(b) Relation ${A^2} = {B^2}$is true because ${A^2} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{ - 1}&0\\0&{ - 1}\end{array}} \right]$ and ${B^2} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{ - 1}&0\\0&{ - 1}\end{array}} \right]$have same matrices.
