Which of the following is a nilpotent matrix
A
$\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1&0\\0&1\end{array}} \right]$
B
$\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\cos \theta }&{ - \sin \theta }\\{\sin \theta }&{\cos \theta }\end{array}} \right]$
C
$\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}0&0\\1&0\end{array}} \right]$
D
$\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1&1\\1&1\end{array}} \right]$
Solution
$A$ is nilpotent if $A^m = 0$ and $A^{m-1} \neq 0$
