36. Let A be a 2 × 2 matrix with real entries. Let I be the 2 × 2 identity matrix. Denote by tr (A), the sum of diagonal entries of A. Assume that A2 = I.
Statement −1: If A ≠ I and A ≠ − I, then det A = − 1.
Statement −2: If A ≠ I and A ≠ − I, then tr (A) ≠ 0.
  • Statement −1 is false, Statement −2 is true
  • Statement −1 is true, Statement −2 is true, Statement −2 is a correct explanation for Statement −1
  • Statement −1 is true, Statement −2 is true; Statement −2 is not a correct explanation for Statement −1.
  • Statement − 1 is true, Statement − 2 is false.
