What is the determinant of a 2x2 matrix?

Back

For a 2x2 matrix [[a, b], [c, d]], the determinant is calculated as ad - bc.

Front

How do you find the inverse of a 2x2 matrix?

Back

The inverse of a 2x2 matrix [[a, b], [c, d]] is given by (1/det) * [[d, -b], [-c, a]], where det = ad - bc and det ≠ 0.

What is a zero matrix?

Back

A zero matrix is a matrix in which all elements are zero.

Front

What is the transpose of a matrix?

Back

The transpose of a matrix is obtained by flipping it over its diagonal, turning rows into columns and vice versa.
