If A= 1&2 3&-1 and B= 1&-4 3&-2 , find |AB|. - Vidyadip

Question

If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}1&2\\3&-1 \end{bmatrix}$ and $\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}1&-4\\3&-2\end{bmatrix},$ find |AB|.

✓

Answer

$\Rightarrow\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}1&2\\3&-1 \end{bmatrix}$
⇒ |A| = -1 - 6 = -7
$\Rightarrow\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}1&-4\\3&-2\end{bmatrix}$
⇒ |B| = -2 + 12 = 10
If A and B are square matrix of the same order, then |AB| = |A| |B|.
⇒ |AB| = |A| |B|
⇒ |AB| = -7 × 10 = -70
