If A=\(\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}\), then which of the following statement is incorrect?(a) A is a skew-symmetric matrix(b) A is a square matrix(c) A is a symmetric(d) A is an identity matrixThis question was posed to me in my homework.I want to ask this question from Symmetric and Skew Symmetric Matrices topic in division Matrices of Mathematics – Class 12

Answer»

The correct OPTION is (a) A is a SKEW-symmetric matrix

To EXPLAIN: Given that, A=\(\BEGIN{bmatrix}1&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}\)

∴A’=\(\begin{bmatrix}1&0\\0&1\end{bmatrix}\)

⇒-A’=\(\begin{bmatrix}-1&0\\0&-1\end{bmatrix}\)≠A. Hence, it is not a skew symmetric matrix.
