If \(A=\left(\begin{array}{cc}\cos \theta & -\sin \theta \\ \sin \theta & \cos \theta\end{array}\right)\) and \(\theta=\frac{2 \pi}{7}\), then \(A^{100}=A \times A \times \ldots .(100\) times \()\) is equal to

  1. A \(\left(\begin{array}{cc}\cos 2 \theta & -\sin 2 \theta \\ \sin 2 \theta & \cos 2 \theta\end{array}\right)\)
  2. B \(\left(\begin{array}{cc}\cos \theta & -\sin \theta \\ \sin \theta & \cos \theta\end{array}\right)\)
  3. C \(\left(\begin{array}{ll}1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1\end{array}\right)\)
  4. D \(\left(\begin{array}{cc}0 & -1 \\ 1 & 0\end{array}\right)\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\left(\begin{array}{cc}\cos 2 \theta & -\sin 2 \theta \\ \sin 2 \theta & \cos 2 \theta\end{array}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Hint : \(\because A^{100}=\left[\begin{array}{cc}\cos 100 \theta & -\cos 100 \theta \\ \sin 100 \theta & \cos 100 \theta\end{array}\right]\) As \(\theta=\frac{2 \pi}{7}\)…
