Matrices(Definition)
 First definition
Any arrangement of m and n values arranged in the shape
of an ordered set of m rows and n columns, is called an m x
n matrix.
 Second definition
A matrix is a set or group of numbers coordinated in a
square or rectangular array enclosed by two brackets [ ].
 Matrices Denoted with a bold Capital letter ,such as
A,B,C,D,…………..
 To declare the size(dimension) of the matrix[A], is
given by mx n, also may be denoted by [A]mx n or (m , n)
or m by n.
Matrices(Advantages)
Matrices in solving practical problems
have two main advantages:
I. Adjustable to systematic process of
mathematical therapy and fully suited
to computers.
II. Reduces sophisticated systems of
equations to more simple expressions.
Matrices(Applications)
Matrices have many applications in different
fields of science such as next.
 Computer Graphics
 Optics
 Cryptography
 Economics
 Chemistry
 Geology
 Robotics and animation
