(a,b,d) it is clear that  A=I  and  A=2I satisfy the given equation A32A2A+2I=0 and the characteristic equation of the matrix in (c) is

2λ121λ001λ=0

λ32λ2+λ2=0

Given  A32A2+A2I=0  

A32A2A+2I=0 and the characteristic equation of the matrix in (d) is

2λ121λ001λ=0 λ32λ2λ+2=0      giving  A32A2A+2I=0
