7 ALGEBRA OF MATRICES

7.1 INTRODUCTION
Rajesh has two factories, one at Delhi and the other at Bombay. Each factory produces two items of garments for ladies and gents. The quantities produced by each factory is given in the matrices below: Factory at Delhi
ITEM I Ladies Gents 600 300 ITEM II 550 450 Ladies Gents

Factory at Bombay
ITEM I 450 250 ITEM II 600 350

We are interested in finding out the total production of items. So what do we do? Or, we may be interested in finding the total cost of producing these items if cost per item is given for each type. In this lesson, we will be finding ways of answering such questions by going into addition, multiplication and algebra of matrices in general.

7.2 OBJECTIVES

7.4 EQUALITY OF MATRICES


Consider the matrix 2 A 3 Its transpose will be A 2 3 Observe that 1. 2. Order of matrix A = Order of matrix A ', i.e., 2 2 Every element of A is same as the corresponding element of A '. In such a case, we say that Consider another example. 2 Let A = 1 3 1 6 4 3 4 5 matrix A = matrix A'. 3 1 1 3

Algebra of Matrices :: 153

Its transpose will be 2 A' = 1 3 Again observe that (i) (ii) Order of matrix A = Order of matrix A ' i.e., 3 3 Every element of A is same as the corresponding element of A '. we say that matrix A = matrix A' 1 6 4 3 4 5

Now consider the matrix A = 2 1 3 4 6 7

Its transpose will be 2 A' = 3 6 1 4 7

Are the two matrices equal ? We observe that (i) Order of A is 2 3 whereas order of A ' is 3 2 hence order of A order of A ' Every element of A is not equal to the corresponding element of A '. Therefore we can say that matrix A matrix A ' Thus, we can define the equality of two matrices as:

(ii)

Two matrices (i)

A and B are said to be equal if

they are of the same order and

each element

of A is equal to the

corresponding element of B . For example: Consider two matrices of the same order x 5 and 2 5

When will the two matrices be equal? Matrices x = 5 5 2

if x = 2, since the two matrices are of the same order. Let us take some more examples Example A: Find the values of a and b if [ a 3] = [4 b ] Solution : If [ a 3] = [4 b ] then the corresponding elements of the matrices will be equal. a = 4 and b = 3

Example B: Find the values of x and y if x 3 2 = y 3 5 1 2

Solution: If x 3 2 = y 3 5 1 2

then their corresponding elements will be equal. x = 1 , y = 5

7.5 SCALAR MULTIPLICATION


Let us consider the following situation : The marks obtained by three students in English, Hindi and Maths are as follows: English Elizabeth Usha Shabnam 20 22 17 Hindi 10 25 25 Maths 15 27 21

It is also given that these marks are out of 30 in each case. In matrix form, the above information can be wirtten as 20 22 17 10 25 25 15 27 21 (It is understood that rows corres pond to the names and columns correspond to the subjects).

158 :: Mathematics

If the maximum marks are doubled in each case, then the marks, obtained by these girls will also be doubled. In matrix form, the new marks can be given as: 2 20 2 22 2 17 40 = 44 34 2 10 2 25 2 25 20 50 50 30 54 42 2 15 2 27 2 21

So, we write that 20 2 22 17 10 25 25 15 27 21 = 2 20 2 22 2 17 2 10 2 25 2 25 215 227 221

40 = 44 34

Now consider the matrix 3 A = 2 1 2 0 6

Let us see what happens, when we multiply the matrix A by 5 3 i.e., 5 A = 5 2 1 2 0 6 = 5 3 5 C 2 5 1 5 2 5 0 5 6

Thus, we can say that When a matrix is multiplied by a scalar , then each of its elements is multiplied by the scalar .

Note:

Multiplying a matrix by (1) is same as writing negative of the same matrix. Thus, the matrix (1) A is same as A .

Now consider another situation Let us consider the following matrices : 1 A = 3 2 6 8 10 , and B = 4 5 8 0 2 4 3 9 6

Now the question is can we obtain a matrix whose elements will be the sum of the corresponding elements of matrices A and B ?. Obviously not. The reason is that the order of matrix A is (32) and the order of matrix B is (33). Therefore, we are unable to find a column in the matrix A which corresponds to the column 3 of matrix B . Thus, we conclude that 1. The sum of two matrices is defined if they are of some order. The sum of two matrices is a matrix obtained by adding the corresponding elements of the given matrices.

Properties of Addition

Recall that in case of numbers, we have x + y = y + x, i.e. addition is commutative. x + (y + z) = ( x + y ) + z , i.e., addition is associative

( i i i ) x + 0 = x i.e., addition identity exists (iv) x + ( x ) = 0, i.e., addition inverse exists Let us check these properties in case of matrices. Let A = 1 1 t h e nA + B = 2 3 2 + (2) 3 + 3 2 + 2 3 + 3 = and B = 0 1 = 1 0 1 0 2 3 0 6 0 6

1 + 0 1 + 1

and B + A =

0 + 1 1 + (1)

Thus, matrix B + A is same as the matrix A + B . So we write A + B = B + A

This is called commutative property of addition.

Algebra of Matrices :: 167

In general, For any two matrices A and B of the same order A + B = B + A

i.e., matrix addition is commutative. Let A = 0 2 3 1 0 2 = 0 2 = 0+2 2+2 = 2 0 and (A + B) + C = 0+1 2+0 = 1 2 = 1+1 2+2 = 2 0 1 6 1 + 3 1+0 3+3 2 3 1 6 3+(4) + 1+2 1 2 0 3 1 0 B = 1 0 3 1 3 + 1 3+(4) 1+5 2 5 4 2 + 1+1 0+2 2 4 and C = 2 4+0 2+3 3 1 0

then A + (B + C) =

Thus, A + ( B + C ) = ( A + B ) + C

168 :: Mathematics

This is called the associative property of addition. In general, For any three matrices A,B and C of the same order, A + (B + C) = ( A + B ) + C i.e., matrix addition is associative.

{ Ans:
Note:

Ans: (ii) Yes, (iii) Yes,

The sum of two matrices, added to the third matrix will give the same result. Recall that we have talked about zero matrix. A zero matrix is that matrix all of whose elements are zero. It can be of any order. Let A = 4 then A + O = 2 5 2 4 2 5 + 2 and O = 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

In general, Additive identity is a zero matrix, which when added to a given matrix, gives the same given matrix, i.e. A + O = A. Check point: Additive identity of a matrix A is (i) (ii) (iii) Any matrix of the same order Zero matrix Zero matrix of the same order. { Ans: (iii) }

It is possible to find another matrix B of the same order such that A + B = O where O is a zero matrix of the order same as that of A or B? Obviously if A + B = O , (then) B = O A = = 0 0 = 0 0 O + (1) (A ) + 2 1 0+(3) 0+(4) 3 4

Thus B = (1) A = A B is called the additive inverse of the matrix A . In general, Given a matrix A , there exists another matrix B = (1) A such that A + B = O, then such a matrix B is called the additive inverse of the matrix A . Clearly, A is also the additive inverse of B . So, B is written as A and A is written as B. Note: The elements of A are the negative of the corresponding element of A .

We observe that: 1. Matrix A can be multiplied by matrix B because the order of matrix A is (2 2) and the order of the matrix B is (2 2) i.e., the number of columns in matrix A is equal to the numbers of rows in matrix B . The number of elements in the resultant matrix will be the product of the number of rows of matrix A and the number of columns of matrix B , which in this case is (2 2) = 4. The elements of the resultant matrix can be obtained by multiplying the rows of A with the columns of B , elementwise, and then taking their sum.

number of columns of A = number of rows of B . AB exists [1 1 2] 2 0 2 = = = [(1 (2)] + (1 0) + (2 2)] [2 + 0 + 4] [2]

Now AB =

Thus, AB = [2] is of order (1 1) and the number of elements in AB = 1 1 = 1 Again, number of columns of B = no. of rows of A

BA exists. 2 0 2 = (2 1) (2 (1)) (2 2) (0 1) (2 1) = 2 0 2 2 0 2 (0 1) (2 (1)) 4 0 4 (0 2) (2 2) [1 1 2]

Now BA =

Thus, BA is of order 3 3 and the number of elements in BA = 3 3 = 9. Also, we find that AB BA In fact, AB and BA are of different orders.

the number of columns of A = number of rows of B AB exists. 1 2 3 1 = 5 8 2 1 = (1 3) + (2 1) (3 3) + (1 1)

Now AB =

3 1

Thus AB =

8 is of order 2 1 and the number of elements in this matrix AB = 2 1 = 2. Can we find BA for the above two matrices? The answer is No because the number of columns in B is one which is not equal to the number of rows in A , which is 2. Thus, in this example, we find that AB exists but BA does not exist. Remark : If AB exist, then BA need not exist.

Checkpoint : Fill in the blanks: The number of elements in the product of a matrix A of order (3 2) and matrix B of order (3 3) will be ___________. { Ans: 3 x 3 = 9 } Example N : If A = 2 0 0 1 and B = 1 2 3 AB and BA Solution : Order of matrix A is (2 2) and order of matrix B is (3 1) Now, since the number of columns of matrix the number of rows of matrix B , AB does not exist. , find

Also, since the number of columns of matrix B number of rows of matrix A , BA does not exist.

Thus, matrix multiplication can be defined as : Given two matrices A and B of order m n and n p respectively their product is a matrix of order m p and the number of elements in this new matrix will be equal to m p . Also, the elements of this new matrix can be obtained by multiplying the rows of A with the columns of B , elementwise, and then taking their sum. Example O If A = 1 1 2 0 and B = 2 2 1 2 , then

find AB and BA. Is AB = BA?

182 :: Mathematics

Solution :

Order of matrix A = 2 2 Order of matrix B = 2 2

Both AB and BA will exist 1 1 = 6 2 2 0 5 1 1 2 2 2 1 1 2 0 = = 21 22 1 0 4+0 4+0 4 4 2 2 2 2 1 2 = 2 + 4 2 + 0 1 + 4 1 + 0

Now AB =

and BA =

2 2

Thus, we find that AB and BA are of the same order (2 2) but still AB BA. Thus, we conclude that matrix multiplication is not commutative. Example P : If A = 2 0 find AB and BA ? Solution 0 3 and B = 4 0 0 1 ,

Is AB = BA ?

Order of matrix A = 2 x 2 Order of matrix B = 2 x 2

Both AB and BA exist 2 0 0 3 4 0 0 1 = 8 0 = 8 + 0 0 + 0 0 3 2 2 0 + 0 0 3

Here, we find that both AB and BA are of the same order i.e., (2 2) and Also AB = BA. Thus, we conclude that even though matrix multiplication is not commutative, but sometimes, it may so happen that AB = BA . Hence, if two metrices A and B are multiplied, then the following five cases are possible; (i) ( ii) Both AB and BA exist but are of different orders.

WHT YOU HAVE LEARNT


Two matrices are said to be equal if they are of the same order and the corresponding elements are equal. Scalar multiple of a matrix is obtained by multiplying each element of the matrix by the scalar. The sum of two matrices (of same order) is a matrix obtained by adding the corresponding elements of the given matrices. Difference of two matrices A and B is nothing but the sum of matrix A and the negative of matrix B.

192 :: Mathematics

Product of two matrices A of order m n and B of order n p is a matrix of order m p whose elements can be obtained by multiplying the rows of A with the columns of B elementwise and then taking their sum.
