In MATLAB, which syntax correctly computes the transpose of a matrix A?

AB = transpose(A);

BB = A';

CB = A.transpose();

DB = A^T;

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand MATLAB transpose operators
In MATLAB, the apostrophe (') operator is used to transpose a matrix.
Step 2: Evaluate each option
B = A'; uses the correct syntax: B = A';. B = transpose(A); is also valid MATLAB syntax but less commonly used than the apostrophe operator. B = A.transpose(); is invalid MATLAB syntax. B = A^T; uses a notation not supported in MATLAB.
Final Answer:
B = A'; -> Option B
Quick Check:
Check if the syntax uses an apostrophe after the matrix variable [OK]
