As we have learnt,

 

Property of matrix multiplication -

AB=0 does not necessarily imply that either A or B is a null matrix 

-

 

 Both matrices need not be null matrices.

 


Option 1)

A = 0, B = 0

Option 2)

A \neq 0, B = 0 or A = 0, B \neq 0

Option 3)

A \neq 0, B \neq 0

Option 4)

All of these
