Exercise 3.4: Find The Inverse of Each of The Matrices, If It Exists

The document consists of a series of questions asking to find the inverse of various matrices, with answers indicating the conditions under which an inverse exists. It emphasizes that if a matrix has a row or column of zeros, its inverse does not exist. Additionally, it states that two matrices A and B are inverses if their product equals the identity matrix (AB = BA = I).

XII
Answer: D
We know that if A is a square matrix of order m, and if there exists another square matrix
B of the same order m, such that AB = BA = I, then B is said to be the inverse of A. In
this case, it is clear that A is the inverse of B.
Thus, matrices A and B will be inverses of each other only if AB = BA = I.
