Solve this

Question:

The matrix $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll}0 & 0 & 4 \\ 0 & 4 & 0 \\ 4 & 0 & 0\end{array}\right]$ is a

(a) square matrix

(b) diagonal matrix

(c) unit matrix

(d) none of these

Solution:

Given: $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll}0 & 0 & 4 \\ 0 & 4 & 0 \\ 4 & 0 & 0\end{array}\right]$

Since, number of rows is equal to number of columns.

Therefore, A is a square matrix.

Hence, the correct option is (a).
