Question: Suppose that m≠n are positive integers, and A is an m
´
n matrix and B is n
´
m mat
rix such that AB = Im
Solution: To prove m If m>n then definitely AB can not be identity matrix of m
´
m .
This we can understand by taking a random example
Let A is an 3
´
2 matrix and B is 2
´
3 matrix such that
A =

Let if possible A.B = I3

2a + 3b = 1
3a + 4b =0
5a + 2b = 0
The above linear equations has no solutions

is not possible for any values of a,b,c,d,e and f.
Hence m can’t be more than n
Conversely if we consider mLet A is an 2
