Excel Minverse

To find the inverse of the matrix A = [[-2, -4, 3], [1, 0, 5], [3, 5, 2]] using MS Excel, one enters the matrix A into cells B2:D4, highlights the cells where the inverse matrix A-1 will be placed, enters the formula =MINVERSE(B2:D4) into the highlighted cells, and simultaneously holds down Ctrl and Shift while pressing Enter to calculate the inverse matrix.

Using MS Excel in Finding the Inverse Matrix

Example:
2 1 3 If A = 4 0 5 ; Find the inverse or A-1 3 5 2

a) Enter the matrices A into the Excel sheet as:

Notice that Matrix A is in cells B2:D4 b) We find the inverse of matrix A by Highlighting the cells where you want to place the resulting matrix A-1

c) Once you have highlighted the resulting matrix, and while it is still highlighted, enter the following formula: = MINVERSE(B2:D4) d) When the formula is entered, press the Ctrl key and the Shift key simultaneously, then press the Enter key. This will change the formula you just wrote to: {= MINVERSE(B2:D4)} If you don't press these keys simultaneously (holding down Shift and Ctrl then press Return), the result will appear only in one cell or, you will get some error message). e) The resulting matrix will be:
