Introduction to Matrices
Definition Representation
A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers arranged in Matrices are commonly represented by uppercase letters
rows and columns. Each element within the matrix is enclosed in square brackets. Each element is represented
identified by its row and column position. by a lowercase letter with subscripts denoting its row and
column position.
Types of Matrices
Square Matrix
A square matrix has an equal number of rows and columns.

Row Matrix
A row matrix has only one row.

Column Matrix
A column matrix has only one column.

Zero Matrix
A zero matrix has all its elements equal to zero.
Matrix Operations:
Addition, Subtraction,

Determinant of a Matrix

Definition
1 The determinant is a scalar value associated with a square matrix.

Calculation
2 For a 2x2 matrix, the determinant is calculated by subtracting the
product of the diagonal elements.

Properties
Determinants have various properties, including linearity
