Let $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & -1 \\ 2 & \alpha \end{bmatrix}$ and $B = \begin{bmatrix} \beta & 1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}$,where $\alpha, \beta \in \mathbb{R}$. Let $\alpha_{1}$ be the value of $\alpha$ which satisfies $(A + B)^{2} = A^{2} + \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 2 \\ 2 & 2 \end{bmatrix}$ and $\alpha_{2}$ be the value of $\alpha$ which satisfies $(A + B)^{2} = B^{2}$. Then $|\alpha_{1} - \alpha_{2}|$ is equal to:

  • A
    $2$
  • B
    $22$
  • C
    $3$
  • D
    $8$
