Question 46

Consider the set H of all 3 × 3 matrices of the type

|a   f   e|
|0   b   d|
|0   0   c|

where a, b, c, d, e and f are real numbers and abc ≠ 0. Under the matrix multiplication operation, the set H is

A
a group
B
a monoid but not a group
C
a semi group but not a monoid
D
neither a group nor a semi group
Question 46 Explanation: 
abc != 0 & Identity matrix is identity then it is non-singular and inverse is also defined.
The algebraic structure is a group because the given matrix can have inverse and the inverse is non-singular.
