Question

Let A be a 10×10 matrix such that  A5 is null matrix and let I be the 10 × 10 identity matrix. The determinant of A+ I is _____.

Show Answer

Answer :

1

Given :

[A ] 10 ×10

A5 = 0

λ5 = 0

λ = 0

Eigen value of [ A+1]'  =λ+ 1=0+1  = 1

Determinant of [ A+1] =1

Hence, the correct answer is 1.
