MATRICES

This document discusses matrices and their properties. It defines a matrix as a set of numbers arranged in rows and columns, with elements being the individual numbers. A matrix is designated as m x n based on the number of rows and columns. Several types of matrices are described such as square, null, diagonal, and identity matrices. Rules for adding matrices and multiplying matrices are provided, along with the definition of a transpose which interchanges the rows and columns of a matrix. Examples are given for each topic.

by a pair of brackets. (5 examples)
2. The elements of a matrix are the numbers in a matrix. (5 examples)
3. If a matrix A has m rows and n columns, then A is called m n matrix. (5 examples)

e) symmetric matrix (3 examples)
f) equal matrix (3 examples)
5. If A and B are two matrices of the same order, that is, they have the same number of rows and
columns, the sum of A and B is the matrix obtained by adding corresponding elements of A
and B. (10 examples)
6. If A is a matrix of order m p and B is a matrix of order p n, then AB is a matrix of order m
n. (10 examples)
7. The transpose of a matrix A, A
T
, is the matrix whose rows are the columns and whose
columns are the rows of A, that is, the rows and the columns are interchanged. (10 examples)
