Question

If A = [aij] is scalar matrix of order n × n such that aij = k for all i, then |A| equals -

  1. nk    
  2. n + k    
  3. nk    
  4. kn    

hintHint:

T h e space t r a c e space o f space a space s q u a r e space m a t r i x space i s space d e f i n e d space t o space b e space t h e space s u m space o f space t h e space d i a g o n a l space e l e m e n t s. space
t h e r e f o r e comma space t r a c e space left parenthesis A right parenthesis equals space sum from i equals 1 to n of a subscript i i end subscript space equals sum from i equals 1 to n of k ​ equals n k.

The correct answer is: kn


    we are given that A is scalar matrix and we need to find |A|

    Therefore the correct answer is choice 4
