What to Focus On

  • A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers arranged in rows and columns
  • Order of a matrix = number of rows × number of columns
  • Elements are denoted as aᵢⱼ where i = row number, j = column number

  • Row Matrix: Only one row (1×n matrix)
  • Column Matrix: Only one column (m×1 matrix)
  • Square Matrix: Number of rows = Number of columns (n×n matrix)

  • Matrices must have the same order for addition/subtraction
  • Add/subtract corresponding elements: (A ± B)ᵢⱼ = aᵢⱼ ± bᵢⱼ
  • Addition is commutative: A + B = B + A

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Matrix multiplication is commutative, so AB = BA always

If AB = 0, then either A = 0 or B = 0

A matrix and its transpose always have the same determinant
