Formula
Matrix addition/subtraction: (A±B)ᵢⱼ = aᵢⱼ ± bᵢⱼ (same dimensions required). Multiplication: (AB)ᵢⱼ = Σ aᵢₖ·bₖⱼ (columns of A must equal rows of B). Transpose: (Aᵀ)ᵢⱼ = aⱼᵢ. Power: Aⁿ = A·A·…·A (n times).
Frequently Asked Questions
When can matrices be added or subtracted?
Two matrices can be added or subtracted only if they have the same dimensions. The operation is performed element by element.
When can matrices be multiplied?
Matrix A (m×n) can be multiplied by matrix B (p×q) only if n = p. The result is an m×q matrix.
What is a matrix transpose?
The transpose of a matrix flips it over its diagonal: rows become columns and columns become rows. If A is m×n, then Aᵀ is n×m.
