Solution:

Question 31.
State, with reason, whether the following are true or false. A, B and C are matrices of order 2 x 2.
(i) A + B = B + A
(ii) A – B = B – A
(iii) (B . C). A = B . (C . A)
(iv) (A + B) . C = A . C + B . C
(v) A . (B – C) = A . B – A . C
(vi) (A – B) . C = A . C – B . C
(vii) A² – B² = (A + B) (A – B)
(viii) (A – B)² = A² – 2 A . B + B²
Solution:
(i) True : Because addition of matrices is commutative.
(ii) False : Subtraction of matrices is not commutative.
(iii) True : Multiplication of matrices is associative.
