Answers (1)

Answer: m\times n

Given: If A is a matrix of order m\times n and B is the matrix such that AB^{T}and B^{T}A are both defined. Then the order of the matrix B is

Hint: compare order of matrices

Solution:

Order of the matrix A=m \times n

Order of the matrix B=p \times q

Order of the matrix B^{T}=q \times p

We are given AB^{T} exists

Number of columns in A= Number of rows in B^{T}

n=q

Also we are given B^{T}A exists

Number of columns in B^{T}= Number of rows in A

p=m

\thereforeOrder of B becomes m\times n
