NDA 2017 Paper 1 | Matrices Question 19 | Mathematics

$$A = \left[ {\matrix{ {x + y} & y \cr x & {x - y} \cr } } \right]$$, $$B = \left[ {\matrix{ 3 \cr { - 2} \cr } } \right]$$ and $$C = \left[ {\matrix{ 4 \cr { - 2} \cr } } \right]$$. If AB = C, then what is A² equal to?

$$\left[ {\matrix{ 4 & 8 \cr { - 4} & { - 16} \cr } } \right]$$

$$\left[ {\matrix{ 4 & { - 4} \cr 8 & { - 16} \cr } } \right]$$

$$\left[ {\matrix{ { - 4} & { - 8} \cr 4 & {12} \cr } } \right]$$

$$\left[ {\matrix{ { - 4} & { - 8} \cr 8 & {12} \cr } } \right]$$
