Determinant and Inverse of Matrices

What size is this matrix?

• 2x2

• 2x3

• 3x2

• 1x6

Dimensions?

• a
• b
• c
• d

What must be true in order to ADD two matrices?

• They must be square.
• The dimensions must be equal.
• The determinant can't equal 0.
• The column of the 1st must equal the row of the 2nd.

Find A+B

• 8     10
  8      1 
• 12     25
  7     1
• 10     30
  0     1
• can't add two together because the rows dont match columns

What would be the dimensions (output) of AB?

• undefined

• 2 X 2

• 3 X 2

• 3 X 3

find: B*A

• 47     30
  9     5
• 17     15
  42     35
• 10     25
  7     1
