     If \[A(\theta )=\left[ \begin{matrix}   1 & \tan \theta   \\    -\tan \theta  & 1  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\] and \[AB=I,\] then\[({{\sec }^{2}}\theta )B\] is equal to :

    A)  \[A\,(\theta )\]

    B)  \[A\,\left( \frac{\theta }{2} \right)\]

    C)  \[A\,\left( -\,\theta  \right)\]

    D)  \[A\,\left( \frac{-\,\theta }{2} \right)\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\because \]\[A(\theta )=\left[ \begin{matrix}    1 & \tan \theta   \\    -\tan \theta  & 1  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\] Also, \[AB=I.\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[B={{A}^{-1}}\]     \[=\frac{1}{1+{{\tan }^{2}}\theta }\left[ \begin{matrix}    1 & -\tan \theta   \\    \tan \theta  & 1  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\]    \[=\frac{1}{{{\sec }^{2}}\theta }\left[ \begin{matrix}    1 & -\tan \theta   \\    \tan \theta  & 1  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\] \[\Rightarrow ({{\sec }^{2}}\theta )B=\left[ \begin{matrix}    1 & -\tan \theta   \\    \tan \theta  & 1  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\]        \[=A\,(-\theta ).\]
