If A= 0&0 4&0 , find A^ 16 . - Vidyadip

Question

If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\4&0\end{bmatrix},$ find $A^{16}.$

✓

Answer

Given,
$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\4&0\end{bmatrix}$
$ \text{A}^2=\text{A}\times\text{A}$
$ =\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\4&0\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\4&0\end{bmatrix}$
$ =\begin{bmatrix}0+0&0+0\\0+0&0+0\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\0&0\end{bmatrix}$
$=0$
$ \text{A}^4=\text{A}^2\times\text{A}^2$
$=0\times0$
$=0$
$ \text{A}^{16}=\text{A}^4\times\text{A}^4$
$=0\times0$
$=0$
So,
$A^{16}$ is a null matrix
