Let $A = [a_{ij}]$ be a $2 \times 2$ matrix such that $a_{ij} \in \{0, 1\}$ for all $i$ and $j$. Let the random variable $X$ denote the possible values of the determinant of the matrix $A$. Then,the variance of $X$ is:

If the matrix $A = \begin{bmatrix} 4 & 1 \\ 3 & 2 \end{bmatrix}$ is expressed as the sum of a symmetric matrix $B$ and a skew-symmetric matrix $C$, then which of the following relations is correct?

The total number of matrices $A = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 2x & 2x \\ 2y & y & -y \\ 1 & -1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}$ where $x, y \in \mathbb{R}$ and $x \neq y$,for which $A^T A = 3I_3$ is:

Let $S = \{ m \in \mathbb{Z} : A^{m^2} + A^m = 3I - A^{-6} \}$,where $A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & -1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}$. Then $n(S)$ is equal to

Suppose $A$ is any $3 \times 3$ non-singular matrix and $(A - 3I)(A - 5I) = O$,where $I = I_3$ and $O = O_3$. If $\alpha A + \beta A^{-1} = 4I$,then $\alpha + \beta$ is equal to

Let $A$ be a $2 \times 2$ matrix with real entries. Let $I$ be the $2 \times 2$ identity matrix. Denote by $tr(A)$ the sum of diagonal entries of $A$. Assume that $A^2 = I$.
Statement-$1$: If $A \neq I$ and $A \neq -I$,then $\det(A) = -1$.
Statement-$2$: If $A \neq I$ and $A \neq -I$,then $tr(A) \neq 0$.
