    Assertion [A]: \[{{A}^{-1}}\]exists
    Reason [R]: \[R\left| A \right|=0\]

    A) Both A and R are individually true and R is the correct explanation of A.

    B) Both A and R are individually true and R is not the correct explanation of A.

    C) 'A' is true but 'R' is false

    D) 'A' is false but 'R' is true

    E) Both A and R are false.

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Given Assertion is \[{{A}^{-1}}\]exists We know that \[{{A}^{-1}}\frac{adj\,A}{\left| A \right|}\] \[\Rightarrow \]If \[\left| A \right|=0\], then \[{{A}^{-1}}\]does not exist \[\therefore \]Reason \[\left| A \right|=0\]is not valid for given Assertion \[\therefore \]A is true but R is false Hence option [C] is the correct answer.
