Matrix


Matrix

A matrix is an arrangement of numbers in rows and columns and enclosed by square brackets


If a matrix has m rows and n columns then it is known as matrix of order m x n. A matrix of order m x n is written as




Standard Matrices

i) Raw Matrix:
A matrix having only one row is called a row matrix.

are the examples of row matrices.

ii)Column Matrix:
A matrix having only one column is known as column matrix.

are the examples of Column Matrices.

iii)Square Matrix:
A matrix is said to be square matrix which consists of equal number of rows and columns.

are the examples of Square matrices.

iv) Diagonal matrix:
A square matrix whose non-diagonal elements are zero is called a diagonal matrix.

are the examples of Diagonal Matrices.

v) Scalar Matrix:
A Diagonal Matrix whose diagonal elements are equal is called a Scalar Matrix.

are the examples of Scalar Matrix.

vi)Unit Matrix or identity Matrix:
A diagonal Matrix whose every diagonal elements are unit is called Unit Matrix. A unit matrix of (n x n) is denoted by In

are the examples of Unit Matrix.

vii)Zero Matrix(or Null Matrix):
A matrix whose every element is zero ir called a zero matrix. It is denoted by Omn

is Null Matrix.

viii)Triangular Matrix:
(a) Upper Triangular Matrix:A square matrix, A = (aij), is called an upper triangular matrix if aij = 0 for i > j.

is upper triangular matrix
Or
A square matrix is said to be upper triangular matrix if the elements below the main diagonal is zero.
b)Lower Triangular Matrix:
A square matrix A = (aij), is called lower triangular matrix if aij = 0 for i < j.
Or
A square matrix is said to be lower triangular matrix if the elements above the main diagonal is zero.

is lower triangular matrix.

ix)Symmetric Matrix:
A square matrix A = (aij) is said to be symmetric matric if aij = aij for all i and j.

is symmetric matrix.

Skew Symmetric Matrix:
A square matrix A = (aij) is called skew symmetric if
aij = -aij for all i and j. Every diagonal elements of a skew symmetric matrix should be zero.

is a skew symmetric matrix.

Hermitian Matrix:
A square matrix A is said to be Hermitian Matrix if A* = A.


Note: The diagonal elements of suh matrices should b purely real numbers.




= A
i.e. A is Hermitian Matrix.
Skew Hermitian Matrix
A square matrix A is said to be Skew Hermitian Matrix if A* = -A i.e. if


Note: The diagonalelements of suchmatrices should be purel imaginar number or zero.











= -A
i.e. A is Skew Hermitian Matrix.
