    The     matrix     product     satisfies \[[5\,\,\,\,6\,\,\,\,\,2].\,\,{{A}^{T}}=[4\,\,8\,\,\,1\,\,\,7\,\,\,8],\] where \[{{A}^{T}}\]denotes the transpose of the matrix A. Then, the order of the matrix A equals to

    A)  \[1\times 2\]           

    B)  \[5\times 1\]

    C)  \[3\times 5\]           

    D)  \[5\times 3\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Given, \[[5\,\,\,6\,\,\,2].\,\,{{A}^{T}}=[4\,\,8\,\,\,1\,\,\,7\,\,\,8]\] Here, order \[(1\times 3).\,(3\times 5)\] must for \[[5\,\,\,6\,\,\,\,2].\,\,{{A}^{T}}\] because for matrix multiplication the column of 1st matrix should be same as row of the second matrix, but the resultant matrix of order \[1\times 5,\] that why the number of columns of II nd matrix should be 5. So, order of \[{{A}^{T}}=3\times 5\] \[\Rightarrow \] Order of \[A=5\times 3\]
