Worked solution

Ans: Since, if \[A\] is a square matrix of order \[m\] , and if there exists another square matrix \[B\] of the same order \[m\] , such that \[AB=BA=I\] , then \[B\] is said to be the inverse of \[A\]. In such a case, it is clear that \[A\] is the inverse of \[B\].

Thus, matrices \[A\] and \[B\] will be inverse of each other only if \[AB=BA=I\].

Thus, option (D) is correct.
