Homework Statement
Find "a" when A is a square matrix satisfying (A+I)(A-I)=I and (A101)-1=2axA
I is the identity matrix.
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm trying to find A. I didn't know where to begin, so I picked A to be all zeroes and plugged it in the equation. It didn't work...
I tried A =
-1 -1
-1 -1
I ended up with
1 2
2 1
I want
1 0
0 1
Can some one give me a hint please.
