3 and 4 .Determinants and Matrices
hard
The number of all $3 \times 3$ matrices $A$, with enteries from the set $\{-1,0,1\}$ such that the sum of the diagonal elements of $\mathrm{AA}^{\mathrm{T}}$ is $3,$ is
A
$632$
B
$672$
C
$682$
D
$638$
(JEE MAIN-2020)
Solution
$\operatorname{trace}\left(\mathrm{AA}^{\mathrm{T}}\right)=\Sigma \mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{ij}}^{2}=3$
Hence, number of such matrices
$=^{9} \mathrm{C}_{3} \times 2^{3}=672.00$
