No: of combinations of n different things taken r at at a time is given by nCr
No: of combinations of n different things taken r at a time and excluding m particular things is n - mCr = C(n-m,r)
where l,m,n represent direction cosineIn a (b +c) cos A + (c + a) cos B + (a + b) cos C is equal to


The number of elements in a 2 x 2 matrix is the product 2 x 2 =4
Each element can either be a 0,1 or 2.
Given this, the total possible matrices that can be selected is 34
