\text{Let }M=\left[\begin{array}{lll} a & b & c \\ d & e & f \\ g & h & i \end{array}\right]

M^{T}=\left[\begin{array}{lll} a & d & g \\ b & e & h \\ c & f & i \end{array}\right]

M^TM=\left[\begin{array}{lll} a & d & g \\ b & e & h \\ c & f & i \end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{lll} a & b & c \\ d & e & f \\ g & h & i \end{array}\right]

Sum of diagonal matrix MTM

\mathrm{a}^{2}+\mathrm{b}^{2}+\mathrm{c}^{2}+\mathrm{d}^{2}+\mathrm{e}^{2}+\mathrm{f}^{2}+\mathrm{g}^{2}+\mathrm{h}^{2}+\mathrm{i}^{2}=7

\mathbf{Case\; I : Seven\; (1's)\; and\; two \;(0's)}

\frac{9 !}{7 ! 2 !}=36

\mathbf{Case\; II : One\;(2)\;Three\; (1's)\; and\; Five \;(0's)}

\frac{9 !}{5 ! 3 !1!}=504

Total = 540
