If \(A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a & 4 & -5 \\ d & b & -6 \\ 5 & e & c\end{array}\right]\) is a skew symmetric matrix, then value of \(a+b+c+d+e\) is equal to
- A 10
- B -10
- C -2
- D 2
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 2
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(a_{ii}=0 \implies a=0, b=0, c=0\). \(a_{12}=-a_{21} \implies 4=-d \implies d=-4\). \(a_{23}=-a_{32} \implies -6=-e \implies e=6\). \(a+b+c+d+e = 0+0+0+(-4)+6 = 2\).
