Study Notes

Matrix Inverse

  • Inversion of a matrix is a process of finding a matrix that, when multiplied by the original matrix, results in the identity matrix.
  • The inverse of a matrix is denoted by A^(-1).

Properties of Matrix Inverse

  • The result of multiplying a square matrix with its inverse is the identity matrix (I).
  • The inverse of a matrix can only be applied to square matrices.
  • A singular matrix is a matrix that does not have an inverse.
  • An invertible matrix is a matrix that has an inverse.

Identifying Invertible Matrices

  • A matrix is invertible if it is a square matrix and has a non-zero determinant.

Adjoint of a Matrix

  • The adjoint of a matrix is the transpose of the cofactor matrix.
  • The adjoint is used to find the inverse of a matrix.

Calculating Inverse of a Matrix

  • The inverse of a matrix can be calculated using the adjoint and determinant.
  • The formula for calculating the inverse is: A^(-1) = adj(A) / |A|.
  • The inverse of a diagonal matrix is obtained by replacing each element in the diagonal with its reciprocal.

Matrix Operations

  • The associative property of matrix multiplication is: (AB)C = A(BC).
  • The distributive property of matrix multiplication is: A(B+C) = AB + AC.
  • The identity matrix for any matrix A of order m x n is: Im A = A = A In.
  • For a square matrix A of order n x n, In A = A In = A.

Verifying Inverse of a Matrix

  • To verify if the inverse of a matrix is correct, multiply the original matrix with the calculated inverse matrix. The result should be the identity matrix.
  • Division operation cannot be performed on matrices. Instead, we use the inverse of a matrix to solve for unknown values.
