MCQ
If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix} 2 & -1 \\ 3 & -2 \end{bmatrix},$ then $A^n=$
  • $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix},$ if $n$ is an even natural number
  • B
    $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix},$ if $n$ is an odd natural number
  • C
    $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix} -1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix},$ if $n\in\text{N}$
  • D
    None of these.

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix},$ if $n$ is an even natural number
$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix} 2 & -1 \\ 3 & -2 \end{bmatrix}$
$\text{A}^2=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}=1$
If $n$ is an natural number.
