Q87 / 180 · KCET 2025 · Mathematics

If $A$ and $B$ are two matrices such that $A B$ is an identity matrix and the order of matrix $B$ is $3 \times 4$, then the order of matrix A is

  • A
    $3 \times 4$
  • B
    $3 \times 3$
  • Correct answer
    C
    $4 \times 3$
  • D
    $4 \times 4$

Solution

$\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{AB}=\mathrm{I} \\ & \mathrm{~A}_{4 \times 3} \mathrm{~B}_{3 \times 4} \rightarrow \mathrm{I}_{4 \times 4} \end{aligned}$ $\rightarrow$ The order of matrix A is $4 \times 3$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
