Question
If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}0&\text{i}\\\text{i}&1\end{bmatrix}$ and $\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}0&1\\1&0\end{bmatrix},$ find the value of $|\text{A}|+|\text{B}|.$

Answer

$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}0&\text{i}\\\text{i}&1\end{bmatrix}$$\Rightarrow|\text{A}|= 0-\text{i}^2$
$\Rightarrow|\text{A}|=-(-1)=1$
Also,
$\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}0&1\\1&0\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow|\text{B}|=0-1=-1$
So,
$\Rightarrow|\text{A}|+|\text{B}|=1-1=0$
