MCQ
The scalar matrix is:
  • A
    $\begin{bmatrix} -1 & 3 \\ 2 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$
  • B
    $\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 3 \\ 2 & 0 \end{bmatrix}$
  • $\begin{bmatrix} 4 & 0 \\ 0 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: C.
$\begin{bmatrix} 4 & 0 \\ 0 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$
A diagonalmatrixwith all its main diagonal entries equal is ascalar matrix, that is, ascalarmultiple of the identity matrix
$\therefore \begin{bmatrix} 4 &\text{amp; 0} \\ 0 &\text{amp; } 4 \end{bmatrix}$ is a scalar matrix.
