  1. A 4
  2. B 0
  3. C -4
  4. D -12
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) -4

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Principal diagonal elements of A and B are a2, b2, c2 and 2a, 2b, 2c-3. According to given condition, a2+b2+c2=2a+2b+2c-3 ⇒a2+1-2a+b2+1-2b+c2+1-2c=0 ⇒a-12+b-12+c-12=0 ∴a-1=0, b-1=0, c-1=0 ⇒a=1, b=1, c=1 Now,…
