Types of Matrices ii.

A + (B+C) = (A+B) + C
- Matrix addition is
Symmetric Matrix associative
iii. A(BC) = (AB)C
Definition
- Matrix multiplication is
- Iff A’ = A or if its transpose is associative
equal to itself iv. A(B+C) = AB + AC
 Equality implies that it is of the v. (A+B)C = AC +BC
same order and all corresponding
elements are the same
 Only square matrices can be Theorem 3
symmetric matrices
(Same for scalars)

Skew-symmetric Matrix
Theorem 4
Definition
i. (AT)T = A
- Iff AT = -A or if its transpose is
- The transpose of the
equal to its inverse
transpose reverts the
 Only matrices w/ zeros in its
transpose to the original
diagonal can be skew-symmetric
matrix
ii. (A+B)T = AT +BT
- The transpose of the sum
Theorems of two matrices is equal to
the sum of the transpose
of those matrices
iii. (cA)T = cAT
Theorem 1 - The transpose of the
 A matrix/vector is nonzero iff product of a scalar and a
there’s one entry that is nonzero matrix is equal to the
(and all the others vanish). product of a scalar and the
 A/v is nonnegative iff there’s at transpose of a matrix
least one entry that is iv. (AB)T = BTAT
nonnegative. - The transpose of the
 A or v is positive iff all entries are product of two matrices is
positive equal to the product of the
transpose of two matrices
Theorem 5
Theorem 2
i. A+B=B+A Operations
- Matrix addition is
commutative
