If A is any \(m \times n\) matrix and B is a matrix such that AB and BA are both defined, then B is a matrix of order :

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(n \times m\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For AB to be defined: columns of A = rows of B \(\Rightarrow n = \text{rows of B}\). For BA to be defined: columns of B = rows of A \(\Rightarrow \text{columns of B} = m\). Order of B is \(\text{rows of B} \times \text{columns of B} = n \times m\).
