If A=100101010, then

Moderate
Solution

A2=100101010100101010=100110101A3=100101011100110101=100201110A3A2=000111011

and AI=000111011

 A3A2=AI                                (1)

Now, detAnI=det(AI)I+A+A2++An1=det.(AI)×det.I+A+A2++An1=0

From (1), A4 - A3 = A2 - A                         (2)

Again from (1), A5 - A4 = A3 - A2 = A - I

Thus, if n is even, An - An-1 = A2 - A          (3)

If n is odd, An - An-1 = A - I                        (4)

Consider that n is even.

 AnAn1=A2A            [from(3)]

and An1An2=AI            [from(4)]

Adding these, we get

AnAn2=A2I

 An=An2+A2I            =An4+A2I+A2I            =An6+A2I+2A2I                                                     =A2+n22A2I

 An=n2A2n22I A200=100A299I

                 =10010011010199100010001=1001001010001
