Find Order of Matrix B

Find the Order of Matrix B

Given:

\[ A \text{ is of order } 2 \times 3 \]

Step 1: Find AT

\[ A^T \text{ is of order } 3 \times 2 \]

Step 2: Condition for ATB

\[ A^T (3 \times 2) \cdot B \Rightarrow \text{columns of } A^T = \text{rows of } B \]

\[ 2 = \text{rows of } B \]

Step 3: Condition for BAT

\[ B \cdot A^T (3 \times 2) \Rightarrow \text{columns of } B = \text{rows of } A^T \]

\[ \text{columns of } B = 3 \]

Final Answer:

\[ \boxed{B \text{ is of order } 2 \times 3} \]
