Determinant of a Matrix

The determinant of a matrix is a scalar value that can be calculated for square matrices (matrices with an equal number of rows and columns). It represents certain properties of the linear transformation represented by the matrix.

Singular and Non-Singular Matrices

A square matrix is called singular if its determinant is equal to zero. A non-singular matrix has a non-zero determinant.

Transpose of a Matrix

The transpose of a matrix is created by swapping its rows and columns. If the original matrix is A, its transpose is denoted as A^T.

Conformable for Multiplication

Two matrices are conformable for multiplication if the number of columns in the first matrix is equal to the number of rows in the second matrix.

Skew-Symmetric Matrix

A square matrix is called skew-symmetric if its transpose is equal to its negative. This means that the elements on the main diagonal must be zero, and the elements below the diagonal are the negative of the corresponding elements above the diagonal.

Study Notes

9th Grade Pre-Exam Practice Test - Mathematics

Matrix Order: The order of a matrix is expressed as number of rows by number of columns
Example: A 2x2 matrix is 2 rows by 2 columns
Square Matrix: A square matrix has the same number of rows and columns.
Identity Matrix: A square matrix with ones on the main diagonal and zeros elsewhere.
Null Matrix: A matrix with all elements equal to zero.
Column Matrix: A matrix with a single column.
Row Matrix: A matrix with a single row.
Matrix Transpose: The transpose of a matrix is obtained by interchanging its rows and columns.
Matrix Multiplication: Two matrices can be multiplied if the number of columns in the first matrix is equal to the number of rows in the second matrix.
Singular Matrix: A matrix that does not have an inverse.
Non-Singular Matrix: A matrix that does have an inverse.
Skew-Symmetric Matrix: A square matrix where the transpose of the matrix is equal to the negative of the original matrix.
Conformable Matrices: Two matrices are conformable for multiplication if the number of columns in the first is equal to the number of rows in the second.
