    sum and product of two matrix in C (with functions)

    I have to write a program in C which finds the sum and the product of two matrix.
    I wrote the functions but I get stucked at calling them in main .I don't know which variable is for rows and columns of result matrix.

    Code:
    
    
    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    void enterMatrix(int a[][10], int rows, int columns)
    {
        int i,j;
        for(i=0;i<rows;i++)
        {
            for(j=0;j<columns;j++)
            {
                printf("a(%d,%d)=",i,j);
                scanf("%d",&a[i][j]);
            }
        }
    }
    void displayMatrix(int a[][10], int rows, int columns)
    {
        int i,j;
        for(i=0;i<rows;i++)
        {
            for(j=0;j<columns;j++)
            {
                printf("%d", a[i][j]);
                printf(" ");
            }
            printf("\n");
        }
    }
    void matrixSum(int a[][10], int b[][10], int c[][10], int rows, int columns)
    {
        int i,j;
        for(i=0;i<rows;i++)
        {
            for(j=0;j<columns;j++)
            {
                c[i][j]=a[i][j]+b[i][j];
            }
        }
    }
    void matrixProduct(int a[][10], int b[][10], int c[][10], int rows, int columns)
    {
        int i,j,k;
        for(i=0;i<rows;i++)
        {
            for(j=0;j<columns;j++)
            {
                c[i][j]=0;
                for(k=0;k<columns;k++)
                {
                    c[i][j]+=a[i][k]*b[k][j];
                }
    
    
            }
        }
    }
    int main(void)
    {
        int a[10][10], b[10][10], sum[10][10], product[10][10];
        int rowsA,columnsA,rowsB,columnsB;
        printf("Number of rows for matrix A: \n");
        scanf("%d",&rowsA);
        printf("Number of columns for matrix A: \n");
        scanf("%d",&columnsA);
        printf("Number of rows for matrix B: \n");
        scanf("%d",&rowsB);
        printf("Number of columns for matrix B: \n");
        scanf("%d",&columnsB);
        printf("Enter first matrix: \n");
        enterMatrix(a,rowsA,columnsA);
        printf("Show first matrix: \n");
        displayMatrix(a,rowsA,columnsA);
        printf("Enter second matrix: \n");
        enterMatrix(b,rowsB,columnsB);
        printf("Show second matrix: \n");
        displayMatrix(b,rowsB,columnsB);
    
    
        if((rowsA==rowsB) && (columnsA==columnsB))
        {
            matrixSum(a,b,sum, ???, ???);
            printf("The sum matrix is: \n");
            displayMatrix(sum, ???, ???);
        }
        else
        {
            printf("Wrong information.");
        }
        if((rowsA==columnsB) && (rowsB==columnsA))
        {
            matrixProduct(a,b,product,???,???);
            printf("The product matrix is \n");
            displayMatrix(product,???,???);
        }
        return 0;
    }

    But if they're the same, does it matter?

    matrixSum(a,b,sum, rowsA, columnsA);
    is exactly the same as
    matrixSum(a,b,sum, rowsB, columnsB);
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
