Solution and Explanation

\((i)\begin{bmatrix}a&b\\-b&a\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}a&b\\b&a\end{bmatrix}\)\(=\begin{bmatrix}a+a& b+b\\ -b+b& a+a\end{bmatrix}\)\(=\begin{bmatrix}2a& 2b\\ 0& 2a\end{bmatrix}\)


\((ii)\begin{bmatrix}a^2+b^2& b^2+c^2\\ a^2+c^2& a^2+b^2\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}2ab& 2bc \\-2ac& -2ab\end{bmatrix}\)
\(=\begin{bmatrix}a^2+b^2+2ab& b^2+c^2+2bc\\ a^2+c^2-2ac& a^2+b^2-2ab\end{bmatrix}\)
\(=\begin{bmatrix}(a+b)^2& (b+c)^2\\ (a-c)^2& (a-b)^2\end{bmatrix}\)


\((iii)\begin{bmatrix}-1&4&-6\\ 8&5&16\\ 2&8&5\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}12&7&6 \\8&0&5\\ 3&2&4\end{bmatrix}\)
\(=\begin{bmatrix}-1+12& 4+7& -6+6\\ 8+8& 5+0& 16+5\\ 2+3& 8+2& 5+4\end{bmatrix}\)
\(=\begin{bmatrix}11& 11& 0\\ 16& 5& 21\\ 5& 10& 9\end{bmatrix}\)


\((iv)\begin{bmatrix}cos^2x& sin^2x\\ sin^2x& cos^2x\end{bmatrix}+\begin{bmatrix}sin^2x& cos^2x\\ cos^2x& sin2x\end{bmatrix}\)
\(=\begin{bmatrix}cos^2x+sin^2x& sin^2x+cos^2x\\ sin^2x+cos^2x& cos^2x+sin^2x\end{bmatrix}\)
\(=\begin{bmatrix}1& 1\\ 1& 1\end{bmatrix}\)\((\because sin^2x+cos^2x=1)\)
