If A is a matrix of order \(m \times n\) and B is a matrix such that \(A B^T\) and \(B^T A\) are both well-defined matrices, then order of matrix B is

  1. A \(n \times n\)
  2. B \(m \times m\)
  3. C \(m \times n\)
  4. D \(n \times m\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(m \times n\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let the order of B be \(p \times q\). Order of \(B^T\) is \(q \times p\). For \(A B^T\) to be defined: \(n = q\). For \(B^T A\) to be defined: \(p = m\). Order of B is \(m \times n\).
