Introduction to Matrices
A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers arranged in rows and columns. It is one of the most
powerful tools in modern mathematics, used in various applications like computer graphics,
cryptography, and solving systems of linear equations.
Types of Matrices:
1. Row Matrix: A matrix with only one row.
2. Column Matrix: A matrix with only one column.
3. Square Matrix: A matrix with the same number of rows and columns.
4. Diagonal Matrix: A square matrix in which all elements except the main diagonal are zero.
5. Identity Matrix: A square matrix with ones on the diagonal and zeros elsewhere.
Operations on Matrices:
- Addition and Subtraction
- Scalar Multiplication
- Matrix Multiplication
- Transpose of a Matrix
- Determinant and Inverse
Real-Life Applications:
Matrices are widely used in real-life applications such as image processing, 3D animations, robotics,
and engineering simulations.
