Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) A,B, D, E only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A. Symmetric Matrix: A matrix is symmetric if \(A^T=A\). In this matrix, the elements \(a_{i j}\) are equal to \(a_{j i}\) (e.g., \(a_{12}=\) \(a_{21}=2, a_{13}=a_{31}=3\), and \(\left.a_{23}=a_{32}=5\right)\). A. Symmetric Matrix:Correct B. Null Matrix: A null (or zero) matrix…
