MCQ
Which of the following is incorrect
  • ${A^2} - {B^2} = (A + B)(A - B)$
  • B
    ${({A^T})^T} = A$
  • C
    ${(AB)^n} = {A^n}{B^n},$where $A, B$ commute
  • D
    $(A - I)(I + A) = O \Leftrightarrow {A^2} = I$

Answer

Correct option: A.
${A^2} - {B^2} = (A + B)(A - B)$
a
(a) We have $(A + B)(A - B) = {A^2} - AB + BA - {B^2}$

$\therefore$ Option $(a)$ is not true.
