Question

If A = `[(1, 3), (3, 1)]`, Show that A2 - 2A is a scalar matrix.

Sum

Solution

A2 = A . A

= `[(1,3), (3, 1)] [(1,3), (3, 1)]`

= `[(10, 6), (6, 10)]`

A2 - 2A = `[(10, 6), (6, 10)] - 2[(1, 3), (3, 1)]`

A2 - 2A = `[(10, 6), (6, 10)] - [(2, 6), (6, 2)]`

A2 - 2A = `[(8, 0), (0, 8)]`

∴ A2 - 2A is a scalar matrix.
