3. MATRIX
A matrix is an ordered rectangular array of
numbers, arranged in rows and columns.
rows
columns
4. ORDER OF A MATRIX
The size or order of a matrix is
described by its number of rows
and the number of columns.
If a matrix, A, has m rows and n columns
then A is described as an mxn matrix.
5. The numbers in a matrix are called its
elements. The element in the ith row and jth
column of a matrix is generally denoted by
aij. A matrix with m rows and n columns is
written or .
6. Row Matrix
A matrix with just one row is
called a row matrix (or row
vector).
A a1 a 2 , an aj (1 x n)
7. Column Matrix
A matrix with just one column is
called a column matrix.
a1
a2
A ai (m x 1)
am
8. Matrices of the same order
Two matrices which have the Same
number of rows and columns are
said to be matrices of the same
order.
9. Equal Matrices
Two matrices A = (aij) and B = (bij) are said to be equal if,
and only if, each element aij of A is equal to the
corresponding element bij of B.
In symbolic form this reads:
A=B aij = bij for all i and j
From this it follows that equal matrices are of the same
order but matrices of the same order are not necessarily
equal.

11. Null matrix
Any matrix, all of whose elements are zero, is called
a null or zero matrix and is denoted by O.
12. Matrix Addition
A new matrix C may be defined as the
additive combination of matrices A and
B where: C = A + B
is defined by:
cij aij bij
Note: all three matrices are of the same dimension
13. Addition

If A

b11 b12
and B
b 21 b 22
a11 b11 a12 b12
then C
a 21 b 21 a 22 b22
15. Multiplication by a scalar
If A is a given matrix and a scalar then
A is the matrix each of whose elements is
times the corresponding element of A.
Thus A
23. Matrix Multiplication
Let A and B be two matrices. If the number of
columns in A is equal to the number of rows
in B we say that A and B are conformable for
the matrix product AB.
If A is order m n and B is of order n p, then
the product AB is defined and is a matrix of
order m p.

30. Note:
If A is an m n and B is n p matrix, then AB is
an m p matrix. Hence we see that BA is
defined only when p=m.
32. The Inverse of a Matrix
Definition:
Let A be a square matrix. A matrix B
such that AB=I=BA is called the inverse
matrix of A and is denoted by A-1.
So if A-1 exists, we have AA-1=I=A-1A
and the matrix is said to be invertible.
If a matrix has no inverse, then it is said
to be non-invertible.
