Lec 5-Matrices

This document provides a summary of lecture 5 on matrices. It discusses matrix operations including addition, scalar multiplication, and multiplication. It defines key matrix concepts such as the identity matrix, transpose, trace, symmetric and skew-symmetric matrices, triangular matrices, diagonal matrices, and the inverse of a matrix. It also discusses using the inverse of a matrix to solve systems of linear equations and properties of the inverse matrix. Methods for finding the inverse using Gauss-Jordan elimination are presented along with examples.
