1. Let A and B be 4 × 5 matrices and let C, D, and E be 5 × 2, 4 × 2, and 5 × 4 matrices,


respectively. Determine which of the following matrix expressions are defined. For those
that are defined, give the size of the resulting matrix.

(a) BA (c) AE + B (e) E (A + B)


(b) AC + D (d) AB + B (f) E (AC)

2. Find, where they exist, the matrices (i) A + B, (ii) A − B, (iii) AB, (iv) BA, (v)
(A + B) (A − B) and (vi) A2 − B2 , if:
