Let A and B be two symmetric matrices of order 3.Statement-1 : A(BA) and (AB)A are symmetric matrices.Statement-2 : AB is symmetric matrix if matrix multiplication of A with B iscommutative.   Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is a correctexplanation for Statement-1.   Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is true;Statement-2 is not a correctexplanation for Statement-1.   Statement-1 is true, Statement-2 is false.   Statement-1 is false, Statement-2 is true.

Answer» `A^T = A & B^T = B`
1) `[A(BA)]^T = [(BA)^T * A^T] = A^T B^TA^T= ABA `
`[(AB)A]^T = A^T(AB)^T = A^TB^TA^T = ABA`
option 2 is correct
