usually enclosed by a pair of brackets. A matrix is also denoted by a single capital letter.

i. Square Matrix a matrix in which the number of rows equals the number of
columns
ii. Zero or Null Matrix a matrix wherein all elements are zero.
iii. Identity matrix is a square matrix in which the diagonal elements are 1 (one)
and all the off-diagonal elements are zero.
iv. Row matrix is a matrix having only one row and n columns. It is also called a
row vector.
v. Column matrix is a matrix with m rows and only one column. It is also
called a column vector.
vi. Diagonal matrix is a square matrix wherein all off-diagonal elements are zero.
vii.Scalar matrix is a square matrix for which all elements on the main diagonal
are equal.
viii.
Symmetric matrix is a square matrix wherein the elements about its
main diagonal are symmetric (i.e. aij = aji).
ix. Lower triangular matrix is a square matrix whose elements above its principal
diagonal are zero.

diagonal are zero.

are of the same order, and each element of A is equal to the corresponding
element of B.
ii. Addition and Subtraction of Matrices. Two matrices A and B can be added (or
subtracted) if they are of the same order. Their sum or difference is obtained by
adding or subtracting their corresponding elements.
iii. Multiplication of a Matrix by a Scalar. The product of a scalar K and a matrix A
is obtained by multiplying each element of the matrix A by the scalar K.
iv. Transpose of a Matrix. The transpose of matrix A, denoted by AT (or A) is
obtained by interchanging the rows and columns of A. The transpose of a
symmetric matrix is equal to the matrix itself, i.e. AT = A.

v.

Multiplication of Matrices. The matrices A and B can be multiplied in the order

AB if and only if the number of columns of A is equal to the number of rows of B.
Such matrices are said to be conformable for multiplication.
vi. Differentiation and Integration of Matrices. The derivative (or integral) of a
matrix is obtained by differentiating (or integrating) each element of the matrix.
vii. Conjugate of a Matrix. When A is a matrix having complex numbers as
elements, the conjugate of A, denoted by , is obtained by replacing each element
by its conjugate. For the complex number a + bi, its conjugate is a bi.
viii. Inverse of a Square Matrix. The inverse of a square matrix A is defined as a
matrix A1 with elements of such magnitudes that the product of the original
matrix A and its inverse A1 equals an identity or unit matrix, I; that is,
A A1= A1 A=I

y

are real numbers and i(i= 1) , which is called the imaginary unit. If

z=x +iy , then

imaginary part of

x is called the real part of

and

z and are denoted by ( z ) and

is called the

called a complex variable.
