Matrix :
 A rectangular array (arrangement) of mn numbers (real or
complex) in m rows and n columns is called a matrix of order m by
n written as m×n.
 A m×n matrix is usually written as
𝑎11 𝑎12 𝑎13
𝑎21 𝑎22 𝑎23
𝑎31 𝑎32 𝑎33
⋯
⋯
⋯
𝑎1𝑛
𝑎2𝑛
𝑎3𝑛
⋮ ⋮ ⋮ ⋮
𝑎 𝑚1 𝑎 𝑚2 𝑎 𝑚3 ⋯ 𝑎 𝑚𝑛 𝑚×𝑛
 This matrix is denoted in a simple form as
𝐴 = 𝑎𝑖𝑗 𝑚×𝑛
Where 𝑎𝑖𝑗 is the element in the 𝑖 𝑡ℎ
row and 𝑗 𝑡ℎ
column
Type Of Matrices :
1. Row Matrix :
A matrix which has only one row is called a row matrix or
row vector.
i.e.
1 −1 2 3 1×4 2 5 1×2
2. Column Matrix :
A matrix which has only one column is called a column
matrix or column vector.
i.e.
1
2
3 3×1
−1
1
0
4 4×1
3. Square Matrix :
A matrix in which the number of rows is equal to
the number of columns is called a square matrix.
i.e.
1 −1 2
3 1 4
5 0 6 3×3
1 2
−1 4 2×2
4. Null or Zero Matrix :
A matrix in which each element is equal to zero
is called a null matrix and is denoted by O.
i.e.
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
0 0
0 0
5. Diagonal Matrix :
A square matrix is called a diagonal matrix if all its
non diagonal elements are zero.
i.e.
1 0 0
0 2 0
0 0 4
3 0
0 5
6. Scalar Matrix :
A diagonal matrix whose all diagonal elements are
equal is called a scalar matrix.
i.e.
3 0 0
0 3 0
0 0 3
5 0
0 5
7. Identity or Unit Matrix :
A diagonal matrix whose all diagonal elements are
unity (1) is called a unit or identity matrix and is
denoted by I.
i.e.
1 0 0
0 1 0
0 0 1
1 0
0 1
8. Upper Triangular Matrix :
A square matrix in which all the entries below the
diagonal are zero is called an upper triangular matrix.
i.e.
4 −3 2
0 3 5
0 0 1
1 3
0 2
10. Trace of a Square Matrix :
The sum of all the diagonal elements of a square matrix is called the trace
of a matrix.
i.e.
If A =
−1 2
3 5
7 0
−8 4
1 2
4 −2
7 −3
1 0
then
Trace of 𝐴 = −1 + 5 + 7 + 0
= 11
 Note : If 𝐴 = 𝑎𝑖𝑗 𝑛×𝑛
then
Trace of 𝐴 = 𝑎11 + 𝑎22 + 𝑎33 + ------ +𝑎 𝑚𝑛
=
𝑖=1
𝑛
𝑎𝑖𝑖
11. Transpose of a Matrix :
The matrix obtained by interchanging the rows and columns
of a given matrix A is called the transpose of A and is denoted
by 𝐴 𝑇 or 𝐴′.
i.e.
𝐼𝐹 𝐴 =
1 2 3
4 5 6 2×3
𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝐴 𝑇 =
1 4
2 5
3 6 3×2
 Properties :
I. 𝐴 𝑇 𝑇
= 𝐴
II. 𝐴𝐵 𝑇
= 𝐵 𝑇
𝐴 𝑇
III. 𝐴 + 𝐵 𝑇 = 𝐴 𝑇 + 𝐵 𝑇
IV. 𝐾𝐴 𝑇
= 𝐾𝐴 𝑇
where K is any scalar.
12. Determinant of a Matrix :
If A is a square matrix then determinant of A is represented as 𝐴 or
det(A).
i.e.
𝐼𝐹 𝐴 =
2 1 −3
4 3 5
5 4 9
𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 det 𝐴 =
2 1 −3
4 3 5
5 4 9
13. Singular and Non-singular Matrix :
A square matrix A is called singular if det(A)=0 and non-singular or
invertible if det(A)≠0.
i.e.
𝐿𝑒𝑡 𝐴 =
2 1 −3
4 3 5
5 4 9
𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 det 𝐴 =
2 1 −3
4 3 5
5 4 9
⟹ 𝐴 = 2 27 − 20 − 1 36 − 25 − 3(16 − 15)
= 14 − 11 − 3 = 0
Hence, A is a singular matrix.
Elementary Transformations :
 Elementary Row Transformations :
1) 𝑅𝑖𝑗 ∶ Interchange of 𝑖 𝑡ℎ and 𝑗 𝑡ℎ row.
2) 𝐾𝑅𝑖 ∶ Multiplication of 𝑖 𝑡ℎ rowby K.
3) 𝑅𝑗 + 𝐾𝑅𝑖 ∶ Addition of K times the 𝑖 𝑡ℎ
row to the 𝑗 𝑡ℎ
row.
 Elementary column Transformations :
1) 𝐶𝑖𝑗 ∶ Interchange of 𝑖 𝑡ℎ and 𝑗 𝑡ℎ column.
2) 𝐾𝐶𝑖 ∶ Multiplication of 𝑖 𝑡ℎ column by K.
3) 𝐶𝑗 + 𝐾𝐶𝑖 ∶ Addition of K times the 𝑖 𝑡ℎ
column to the
𝑗 𝑡ℎ
column.
 Equivalent Matrices :
Two matrices A and B of same order are said to be
equivalent matrices if one of them is obtained from the
other by elementary transformation.
Symbolically, we can write A ~ B.
 Row Echelon form :
A given matrix is said to be in row echelon form if it
satisfies the following properties:
I. The zero rows of the matrix if they exists occur below
the non-zero rows of the matrix.
II. The first non-zero element in any non-zero row of the
matrix must be equal to unity (1). We call this
a leading 1.
III. In any two successive rows that do not consists
entirely of zeros, the leading 1 in the lower row
occurs farther to the right than the leading 1 in the
higher row.
 The following matrices are in row echelon form :
1 1 0
0 1 0
0 0 0
,
1 4 −3 7
0 1 6 2
0 0 1 5
,
0 1 2 6 0
0 0 1 −1 0
0 0 0 0 1
 Reduced Row Echelon Form :
A given matric is said to be in reduced row echelon
form if it satisfies the following properties :
I. A matrix is of necessity in row echelon form.
II. Each column that contains a leading 1 has zero
everywhere else in that column.
 The following matrices are in reduced row echelon
form.
0 0
0 0
1 0 0
0 1 0
0 0 1
1 0 0 4
0 1 0 7
0 0 1 −1
0 1
0 0
−2 0 1
0 1 3
0 0
0 0
0 0 0
0 0 0
Notes:
(1) Every matrix has an unique reduced row echelon form.
(2) A row-echelon form of a given matrix is not unique.
(Different sequences of row operations can produce
different row-echelon forms.)
System of Non-Homogeneous Linear Equations :
A system of m linear equations in n unknowns can be
written as
𝑎11 𝑥1 + 𝑎12 𝑥2 + ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ + 𝑎1𝑛 𝑥 𝑛 = 𝑏1
𝑎21 𝑥1 + 𝑎22 𝑥2 + ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ + 𝑎2𝑛 𝑥 𝑛 = 𝑏2
⋮ ⋮ ⋮ = ⋮
𝑎 𝑚1 𝑥1 + 𝑎 𝑚2 𝑥2 + ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ + 𝑎 𝑚𝑛 𝑥 𝑛 = 𝑏 𝑚
The above system can be written in a matrix form as

Solutions of a system of linear Equations :
There are only two possibilities for the solution of homogenous
linear system.
I. The system has exactly one solution.
i.e. 𝑥1 = 0, 𝑥2 = 0, ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ , 𝑥 𝑛 = 0
This solution is called the trivial solution.
II. The system has infinite solutions, this solution is called the
non-trivial solution.
 Note : The system of equation has non-trivial solution if det(A) =
0.
Cramer’s rule :
 Theorem-1 :
If A X = B is a system of n linear equations in n unknowns such
that det(A) ≠ 0, then the system has a unique solution. This
solution is
𝑥1 =
det(𝐴1)
det(𝐴)
, 𝑥2 =
det(𝐴2)
det(𝐴)
, ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ , 𝑥 𝑛 =
det(𝐴 𝑛)
det(𝐴)
where 𝐴𝑗 is the matrix obtained by replacing the entries in the
𝑗 𝑡ℎ
column of A by the entries in the matrix. B =
𝑏1
𝑏2
⋮
𝑏 𝑛
 Note : Cramer’s rule can’t be used for a system AX=B in which
det(A) = 0.

 Theorem-2 :
If A is an 𝑛 × 𝑛 triangular matrix ( upper triangular, lower
triangular or diagonal ) then det(A) is the product of the entries
on the main diagonal of the matrix. That is
det (A) = 𝑎11 ∗ 𝑎22 ∗ 𝑎33 ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ 𝑎 𝑚𝑛
i.e.
If A =

matrix.
𝐿𝑒𝑡 𝐴 =
𝑎11 𝑎12 𝑎13
𝑎21 𝑎22 𝑎23

The matrix formed by the cofactors of the element of A is
𝐶𝐴 =
𝐴11 𝐴12 𝐴13
𝐴21 𝐴22 𝐴23
𝐴31 𝐴32 𝐴33
where 𝐴𝑖𝑗 is the cofactor of 𝑎𝑖𝑗.
Then, adj A = 𝐶𝐴

Invertible Matrix :
If A is a square matrix and if a matrix B of the same order can
be found such that
AB = BA = I
then A is said to be invertible and B is called an inverse of A.
i.e. 𝐵 = 𝐴−1.

(2) If A =

Gauss-Jordan Method :
Let A be a given non-singular matrix of order n.
Let 𝐼 𝑛 be the unit matrix of order n.
To find 𝐴−1, take the matrix 𝐴 ∶ 𝐼 𝑛 and reduce it with
the help of a series of row operations to the form
𝐼 𝑛 ∶ 𝐵 . Then 𝐵 = 𝐴−1.

properties :
I. There is at least one minor of order r which is not zero
II. Every minor of order (r+1) is zero.
 Rank of matrix A is denoted by 𝜌(𝐴).
 There are three methods for finding the rank of a matrix
1. Rank of a matrix by Determinant method.
2. Rank of a matrix by row Echelon form.
3. Rank of a matrix by Normal form.
 Note :
I. If A is zero matrix then 𝜌 𝐴 = 0.
II. If A is not a zero matrix then 𝜌 𝐴 ≥ 1.
III. If A is a non-singular n× 𝑛 matrix then 𝜌 𝐴 = 𝑛.
IV. 𝜌 𝐼 𝑛 = 𝑛 , where 𝐼 𝑛 is 𝑛 × 𝑛 unit matrix .
V. If A is 𝑚 × 𝑛 matrix then 𝜌 𝐴 ≤ 𝑚𝑖𝑛 𝑚 , 𝑛 .
Rank of Matrix by Row Echelon Form :
The rank of a matrix in row echelon form is equal to the
number of non-zero rows of the matrix.
i.e.
Rank of matrix = Number of non-zero rows
e.g.
𝐼𝑓 𝐴 =
1 2
0 0
5 0
1 0
0 0 0 0
𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛
𝜌 𝐴 = 𝑁𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑛𝑜𝑛 − 𝑧𝑒𝑟𝑜 𝑟𝑜𝑤𝑠
𝜌 𝐴 = 2
Rank of Matrix by Normal Form :
If a matrix A is of the form
𝐼𝑟 0
0 0
𝑜𝑟
𝐼𝑟
0
𝑜𝑟 𝐼𝑟 0 𝑜𝑟 𝐼𝑟
Then it called normal form of A.
Note : Rank of A = r.
SOME SPECIAL MATRIX :
1. Symmetric Matrix :
A Square matrix A= 𝑎𝑖𝑗 𝑛×𝑛
is called symmetric matrix
if 𝑎𝑖𝑗 = 𝑎𝑗𝑖 ∀ 𝑖 & 𝑗. OR A = 𝐴 𝑇
i.e.
7 −3
−3 5
1 4 5
4 −3 0
5 0 7
2. Skew Symmetric Matrix :
A Square matrix A= 𝑎𝑖𝑗 𝑛×𝑛
is called Skew symmetric matrix if
𝑎𝑖𝑗 = −𝑎𝑗𝑖 ∀ 𝑖 & 𝑗. OR A = −𝐴 𝑇
If 𝑖 = 𝑗 , 𝑎𝑖𝑖 = −𝑎𝑖𝑖
2𝑎𝑖𝑖 = 0
𝑎𝑖𝑖 = 0 ∀ 𝑖
Thus the diagonal element of a skew symmetric matrix are all zero.
i.e.
0 1 4
−1 0 −3
−4 3 0
0 ℎ 𝑔
−ℎ 0 𝑓
−𝑔 −𝑓 0
3. Orthogonal Matrix :
A square matrix A is called orthogonal if 𝐴 𝑇
= 𝐴−1
𝑜𝑟 𝐴𝐴 𝑇 = 𝐴 𝑇 𝐴 = 𝐼.
Complex Matrix :
If all the element of a matrix are real numbers then it is called a
real matrix.
If at least one element of a matrix is a complex number 𝑎 + 𝑖𝑏
where 𝑎 , 𝑏 are real numbers and 𝑖 = −1 then the matrix is
called a complex matrix.
i.e.
2 + 𝑖 0 −5
3 −𝑖 4 + 2𝑖
 Conjugate of a matrix :
The matrix obtained from any given matrix A by replacing its
element by the corresponding complex conjugates is called the
conjugate of A and is denoted by 𝐴.
i.e.
𝐴 =
2 + 3𝑖 −4𝑖
5 7 − 2𝑖
⇒ 𝐴 =
2 − 3𝑖 4𝑖
5 7 + 2𝑖
 Transposed conjugate of a matrix :
The transpose of the conjugate matrix of a matrix A is called
the transposed conjugate of A and is denoted by 𝐴∗
i.e.
𝐴∗ = 𝐴
𝑇
= 𝐴 𝑇
Hermitian Matrix :
A square matrix 𝐴 = 𝑎𝑖𝑗 is said to be Hermitian if 𝑎𝑖𝑗 = 𝑎𝑖𝑗 ∀ 𝑖 & 𝑗
Or
𝐴 = 𝐴∗ where 𝐴∗ = 𝐴
𝑇
i.e.
1 2 − 3𝑖 4 + 𝑖
2 + 3𝑖 3 1 + 2𝑖
4 − 𝑖 1 − 2𝑖 7
Note : In a Hermitian matrix, the diagonal elements are real
Skew Hermitian Matrix :
A square matrix 𝐴 = 𝑎𝑖𝑗 is said to be skew Hermitian matrix if
𝑎𝑖𝑗 = −𝑎𝑖𝑗 ∀ 𝑖 & 𝑗
Or
𝐴 = 𝐴∗ where 𝐴∗ = 𝐴
𝑇
i.e.
2𝑖 3 + 𝑖 5
−3 + 𝑖 0 −1 − 𝑖
−5 1 − 𝑖 −𝑖
Note : In a skew Hermitian matrix , the diagonal elements are zero or
purely imaginary numbers.
 Unitary Matrix : A square matrix A is said to
be unitary if
𝐴∗ = 𝐴−1 or 𝐴∗ 𝐴 = 𝐴𝐴∗ = 𝐼
Where 𝐴∗
