What is a Matrix?
• A matrix is an ordered set of numbers listed
in rectangular form.
• Example.
2 5 7 8
5 6 8 9
3 9 0 1

Example
• A denote the matrix
2 5 7 8
A= 5 6 8 9
3 9 0 1
• This matrix A has three rows and four
columns. We say it is a 3 x 4 matrix.
• We denote the element on the second row
and fourth column with a2,4.

In general,
• If a matrix has n rows and m columns, we
call it an n x m matrix
• We denote the element on the ith row and
jth column with ai,j.

Square matrix
• If a matrix A has n rows and n columns then
we say, it is a square matrix.
• In a square matrix the elements ai,i ,
with i = 1,2,3,... , are called diagonal lements.

• Remark. There is no difference between a 1

x 1 matrix and an ordenary number.

Diagonal matrix
• A diagonal matrix is a square matrix with
all the non-diagonal elements are 0.
• The diagonal matrix is completely denoted
by the diagonal elements.
• Example.
7 0 0
0 5 0
0 0 6

• The matrix is denoted by diag(7 , 5 , 6)

Row matrix
• A matrix with one row is called a row matrix
• Eg. : 1 5 12

Column matrix
• A matrix with one column is called a column
matrix
• Eg. : 1

Identity matrix
• An identity matrix I is a diagonal matrix
with all diagonal element = 1.
• Eg.: 1 0 0 0
0 1 0 0
0 0 1 0
0 0 0 1

Tranpose of a matrix
• The n x m matrix A' is the transpose of the m x n matrix
A if and only if
– The ith row of A = the ith column of A' for (i = 1,2,3,..n)
– So ai,j = aj,i‘

Example :
Let
1 2 3
4 5 6
Then
1 4
Transpose ( A ) = 2 5
3 6

 Matrix Addition and Subtraction
• Matrix addition and subtraction occurs by
adding (subtracting) the like elements of
same dimension matrices.
• Example
1 2 5 6  6 8 
3 4 + 7 8 = 10 12
     

Matrix Multiplication
• Matrix multiplication can only occur
between matrices where the number of
columns of the first matrix to be multiplied
equals the number of rows of the second
matrix being multiplied.
• Matrix multiplication is best shown by an
example.

Example
 6 8 3 − 8 1 90 − 32 46
− 2 4 * 9 2 5 = 30 24 18 
     

• Expanded:

 6*3 + 8*9 6 * (−8) + 8 * 2 6 *1 + 8 * 5 

 − 2 * 3 + 4 * 9 − 2 * (−8) + 4 * 2 − 2 * 1 + 4 * 5
 

Inverse of a matrix
• For a square matrix A, the inverse is written A-1.
• When A is multiplied by A-1 the result is the
identity matrix I.( ie A. A-1 = I )
• Non-square matrices do not have inverses.
• Not all square matrices have inverses.
• A square matrix which has an inverse is called
invertible or nonsingular.
• A square matrix without an inverse is called
noninvertible or singular.
