Can you please help me understand this question?

I'm in Linear algebra and I have been confusing how to solve these types of problems.

Thank you!

1. (Here, O is the zero matrix.) Show that every nilpotent matrix is singular. (Hint: Think about the determinant.) "/>
Extracted text: 21. A square matrix A is said to be nilpotent if A" = O for some n e N, n > 1. (Here, O is the zero matrix.) Show that every nilpotent matrix is singular. (Hint: Think about the determinant.)
