Detailed Solution & Explanation

In set theory, let U\displaystyle U be the universal set and A\displaystyle A be any subset of U\displaystyle U.
The complement of set A\displaystyle A, denoted by Ac\displaystyle A^c, is the set of all elements in U\displaystyle U that do not belong to A\displaystyle A:
Ac={x∈U∣x∉A}A^c = \{x \in U \mid x \notin A\}
Taking the complement of Ac\displaystyle A^c again:
(Ac)c={x∈U∣x∉Ac}(A^c)^c = \{x \in U \mid x \notin A^c\}
Since x∉Ac\displaystyle x \notin A^c implies that x∈A\displaystyle x \in A, we have:
(Ac)c=A(A^c)^c = A
(Note: Even if interpreted as matrices where c\displaystyle c represents the transpose T\displaystyle T, the double transpose of a matrix A\displaystyle A returns the original matrix: (AT)T=A\displaystyle (A^T)^T = A.)
Hence, **Option A** is the correct answer.

Key Concepts to Understand

Matrix

A rectangular arrangement of numbers (elements) in rows and columns, enclosed in brackets. An m × n matrix has m rows and n columns. Matrices support addition, subtraction, and multiplication (subject to compatibility conditions).
