MAT.116 5.4

Matrices are fundamental elements in linear algebra and are utilized in various mathematical and real-world applications. They are ordered rectangular arrays of numbers organized into rows and columns.

MAT.116 5.4 Matrices

Addition and Subtraction

If A and B are two matrices of the same size, then:

  • The sum A+B is the matrix obtained by adding the corresponding entries in the two matrices.
  • the difference A-B is the matrix obtained by subtracting the corresponding entries in B from those in A.
  • Zero Matrix

    A zero matrix is one in which all entries are zero.

    A zero matrix O has the property that A+O = O+A = A for any matrix A having the same size as that of O.

    Laws for Matrix Addition

    If A, B, and C are matrices of the same size, then

  • A+B = B+A (commutative law)
  • (A+B)+C = A+(B+C) (associative law)
  • Definitions

    Transpose of a Matrix

    If A is an m x n matrix with elements a_{ij}, then the transpose of A is the n x m matrix A^T with elements a_{ji}.

    Scalar Multiplication

    If A is a matrix and c is a real number, then the scalar product cA is the matrix obtained by multiplying each entry of A by c.

    Equality of Matrices

    Two matrices are equal if they have the same size and their corresponding entries are equal.

    Definition
    Block / Table / Rectangular Array

    A matrix is an ordered rectangular array of numbers. A matrix with m rows and n columns has size m x n. The entry in the ith row and the jth column of a matrix A is denoted by a_{ij}.
