Matrix Investigation I will try to investigate in powers of matrices (2x2). Also‚ try to find a pattern‚ if there is one. A=[pic] Using my GCD calculator to raise matrix A to different powers [pic]= [pic] [pic]= [pic] [pic]=[pic] [pic]= [pic] [pic]= [pic] [pic]= [pic] [pic]=[pic] The pattern that I can see is that when the power of matrix A is an even number e.g. 2‚4‚6‚8 then the result is [pic] the identity matrix. However‚ when the power
