74. If A and B are square matrices of the same order such that AB = BA, then prove by induction that ABn = BnA. Further, prove that (AB)n = AnBn for all n Î N.
74. If A and B are square matrices of the same order such that AB = BA, then prove by induction that ABn = BnA. Further, prove that (AB)n = AnBn for all n Î N.
We have, AB = BA. (given)
(E) P (n):AB' = B'A.
P (i):AB1 = B1A. Þ AB = BA
so, the result is true for n = 1.
Let the result be true for n = k.
P (k):ABk = BkA
Then,
P (k + 1) : ABk + 1 = A. Bk. B = BkA.B = Bk.BA
= Bk + 1.A .
So, ABk + 1 = Bk + 1A.
The result also holds for n = k + 1.
Hence, AB^n = B^n A^n ho
