2. Inverse matrix The inverse of a square matrix is another matrix such that when the two are multiplied together, in any order, the product is an identify matrix.
3. Inverse matrix When a number , n , multiplies by its reciprocal n-1 , the product is 1. The inverse of a matrix, A, is denoted by A-1 and the product of A x A-1 is the identify matrix, I .
6. BA = [ ][ ] 7 -4 -5 3 3 4 5 7 = [ ] 21+(-20) 28+(-28) -15+15 -20+21 = [ ] 0 0 1 AB= I and BA= I Therefore; A is the inverse matrix of B, A=B-1. B is the inverse matrix of A, B=A-1.
7. b) AB= [ ][ ] 5 3 8 8 5 3 2 = [ ] 16+15 10+10 24+24 15+16 = [ ] 20 48 31 ( Not equal to I ) Therefore; A is not the inverse matrix of matrix B, A is not equal to B.

11. 3a + c = 1 1 3b + d = 0 3 3a + 4c = 0 2 3b + 4d = 1 4 1-2 : -3c = 1 3-4 : -3d = -1 c = -⅓ d = ⅓ Substitute c =-⅓ in equation 1 3a + (-⅓) = 1 a = 4⁄9 Substitute d = ⅓ in equation 3 3b + (⅓) = 0 b = - 1/9 Therefore, A⁻1=[ ] Check the answer; AA⁻1 = [ ][ ] = [ ]= I 4/9 -1/9 -1/3 1/3 1 3 4 4/9 -1/9 -1/3 1/3 0 0 1
12. Example 1 Given the matrix B, find the inverse B¯1 by using the method of solving simultaneous linear equations. B= [ ] Solution: Let B¯1= [ ] [][ ]=[ ] [ ]=[ ] 4e + 3g = 1 1 4f + 4h = 0 3 4e + 4g = 0 2 4f + 4h = 1 4 3 4 4 e f g h 3 4 4 0 0 1 e f g h 4e +3g 4f +3h 4e +4f 4f +4g 0 0 1
13. 2-1 : g = -1 4-3 : h = 1 So, 4e + 3(-1) = 1 so, 4f + (1)= 0 e = 1 f = -3⁄4 Therefore, B⁻1 = [ ] -3⁄4 -1 1
14. B. Using Formula We can obtain the inverse of 2 x 2 matrix by using the following formula. In general, if A = [ ] The inverse of matrix A is A⁻1 =1⁄ad – bc[ ] [ ] ad-bc is the determinant and written as |A| a b c d d -b -c d d/ad – bc -b/ ad-bc -c/ ad-bc a/ad-bc
