Rank of a matrix
Definition: Rank of a matrix A is r if,
i)
ii)
Rank of a matrix
If A is a null matrix then (A) = 0.
If A is not a null matrix then (A) 1.
If A is a m n matrix, then (A) min (m, n).
If A is a square matrix of order n, then (A) = n iff |A| 0.
(A) = (AT) .
If A has a non-zero minor of order r then (A) r.
If all the minors of order r+1 of A are 0, then (A) r.

Elementary Transformations
The following operations w.r.t. a matrix are known as
elementary transformations.
Interchange of any two ROWS, indicated by Rij or by
Ri Rj
Multiplication of elements of any ROW by a non-zero
real number, indicated by Ri kRi
Addition of the constant multiple of jth ROW to ith ROW
indicated by Ri Ri + kRj
Similar COLUMN transformation are denoted by
Example.
Using elementary transformations reduce
the matrix A first to upper triangular
and then to identity matrix where
