Question 1 |

M^{4k} |
Question 1 Explanation:
Given that M^{4}=I or M^{4 k}=I or M^{4(k+1)}=I
\begin{aligned} \therefore \quad M^{-1} \times I & =M^{4(k+1)} \times M^{-1} \\ \therefore \quad M^{-1} & =M^{4 k+3}\end{aligned}
\begin{aligned} \therefore \quad M^{-1} \times I & =M^{4(k+1)} \times M^{-1} \\ \therefore \quad M^{-1} & =M^{4 k+3}\end{aligned}
