Answer

Given,

A = [012103230]\begin{bmatrix} 0 & -1 & 2 \ 1 & 0 & 3 \ -2 & -3 & 0 \end{bmatrix}

A′ = [012103230]\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 1 & -2 \ -1 & 0 & -3 \ 2 & 3 & 0 \end{bmatrix}

(A + A′)

[012103230]+[012103230][0+01+12+(2)1+(1)0+03+(3)2+23+30+0][000000000]\Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix} 0 & -1 & 2 \ 1 & 0 & 3 \ -2 & -3 & 0 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 1 & -2 \ -1 & 0 & -3 \ 2 & 3 & 0 \end{bmatrix} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix} 0 + 0 & -1 + 1 & 2 + (-2) \ 1 + (-1) & 0 + 0 & 3 + (-3) \ -2 + 2 & -3 + 3 & 0 + 0 \end{bmatrix} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \ 0 & 0 & 0 \ 0 & 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
