MCQ
Let $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{a}&0&0\\0&\text{a}&0\\0&0&\text{a}\end{bmatrix},$ then $A^n$ is equal to :
  • A
    $\begin{bmatrix}\text{a}^\text{n}&0&0\\0&\text{a}^\text{n}&0\\0&0&\text{a}\end{bmatrix}$
  • B
    $\begin{bmatrix}\text{a}^\text{n}&0&0\\0&\text{a}&0\\0&0&\text{a}\end{bmatrix}$
  • ✓
    $\begin{bmatrix}\text{a}^\text{n}&0&0\\0&\text{a}^\text{n}&0\\0&0&\text{a}^\text{n}\end{bmatrix}$
  • D
    $\begin{bmatrix}\text{na}&0&0\\0&\text{na}&0\\0&0&\text{na}\end{bmatrix}$
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\begin{bmatrix}\text{a}^\text{n}&0&0\\0&\text{a}^\text{n}&0\\0&0&\text{a}^\text{n}\end{bmatrix}$
$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{a}&0&0\\0&\text{a}&0\\0&0&\text{a}\end{bmatrix}=\text{a}\begin{bmatrix}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix}$
$\text{A}^\text{n}=\text{a}^\text{n}\begin{bmatrix}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{a}^\text{n}&0&0\\0&\text{a}^\text{n}&0\\0&0&\text{a}^\text{n}\end{bmatrix}$
