Show that AB ≠ BA in each of the following cases :
and 
Given :
and 
Matrix A is of order 2
2 and Matrix B is of order 2
2
To show : matrix AB
BA
Formula used :

Where cij = ai1b1j + ai2b2j + ai3b3j + ……………… + ainbnj
If A is a matrix of order a
b and B is a matrix of order c
d ,then matrix AB exists and is of order a
d ,if and only if b = c
If A is a matrix of order a
b and B is a matrix of order c
d ,then matrix BA exists and is of order c
b ,if and only if d = a
For matrix AB, a = 2,b = c = 2,d = 2 ,thus matrix AB is of order 2
2
Matrix AB = ![]()
Matrix AB =
= ![]()
Matrix AB = ![]()
For matrix BA, a = 2,b = c = 2,d = 2 ,thus matrix BA is of order 2
2
Matrix BA= ![]()
Matrix BA =
= ![]()
Matrix BA = ![]()
Matrix BA =
and Matrix AB = ![]()
Matrix AB
BA
