detailed solution

Correct option is B

$A = [\begin{array}{cc} 0 & 2 \\ K & - 1 \end{array}] \begin{aligned} A^{4} + 3 IA = 2 I \\ \Rightarrow A^{4} = 2 I - 3 A Also characteristic equation of A is \end{aligned} \begin{array}{l} IA - λ II = 0 \\ \Rightarrow |\begin{array}{cc} 0 - λ & 2 \\ k & - 1 - λ \end{array}| = 0 \\ \Rightarrow λ + λ^{2} - 2 k = 0 \\ \Rightarrow A + A^{2} = 2 K . I \\ \Rightarrow A^{2} = 2 KI - A \\ \Rightarrow A^{4} = 4 K^{2} I + A^{2} - 4 AK \\ Put A^{2} = 2 KI - A \\ and A^{4} = 2 I - 3 A \\ 2 I - 3 A = 4 K^{2} I + 2 KI - A - 4 AK \\ \Rightarrow I (2 - 2 K - 4 K^{2}) = A (2 - 4 K) \\ \Rightarrow - 2 I (2 K^{2} + K - 1) = 2 A (1 - 2 K) \\ \Rightarrow - 2 I (2 K - 1) (K + 1) = 2 A (1 - 2 K) \\ \Rightarrow (2 K - 1) (2 A) - 2 I (2 K - 1) (K + 1) = 0 \\ \Rightarrow (2 K - 1) [2 A - 2 I (K + 1)] = 0 \\ \Rightarrow K = \frac{1}{2} \end{array}$
