Matrix Notation & Terminology

Definition (m x n Matrix)

a rectangular array of numbers enclosed within brackets that consisting of m horizontal row and n vertical columns,

where ij denotes the entry in the ith row and jth column.

A matrix usually denoted by bold capital letters. Eg:A,B,C

Let A be an m x n matrix and B be an n x p matrix. Then

the product AB is the m x p matrix C whose entry in row

i and column j is obtained as follows: Sum the products

formed by multiplying, in order, each entry (that is, first, second,

etc.) in row i of A by the “corresponding” entry (that is, first,

second, etc.) in column j of B.

Reduced Matrix

A matrix is said to be a reduced matrix, provided that all of the following are true:

• If a row does not contain entirely of zeros, then the first nonzero entry in the row, called the leading entry, is 1, whereas all other entries in the column in which the 1 appears are zeros.

• The first nonzero entry in each row is to the right of the first nonzero entry in each row above it.

• Any rows that consist entirely of zeros are at the bottom of the matrix

For each of the following matrices, determine whether it is

reduced or not reduced.

Elementary Row Operation

An augmented coefficient matrix is transformed into a row-equivalent

matrix if any of the following row operation is performed.

i) two rows are interchanged:

ii) a row is multiplied by a non zero constant:

iii) a constant multiple of one row is added to another row

Types of Solutions

1) If the reduced augmented coefficient matrix has a row of

the form

where k is a nonzero constant, then the linear system

AX = B has no solution and inconsistent.

2) If the reduced augmented coefficient matrix has a last row

of the form

then the linear system AX = B has infinite number of

solutions.

3) If the reduced augmented coefficient matrix has a last row of

the form

then the linear system AX = B has unique solutions.

Inverse

53

• Objective: To determine the inverse of an invertible

matrix and to use inverses to solve system.

• Definition: If A is a square matrix and there exists a

matrix C such that CA=I, then C is called an inverse of

A, and A is said to be invertible.



2.6.1) Inverse by Adjoint Method

If A is a square matrix, the transpose matrix of matrix cofactor

A is known as adjoint of matrix A and is denoted by ,

where C is the cofactor of matrix A. If (non singular),

then the inverse matrix
