MATRICES ASSIGNMENT

Given the matrices:

 


a) What is the dimension of each matrix?
b) Which matrices are square?
c) Which matrices are symmetric?
d) Which matrix has the entry at row 3 and column 2 equal to -11?
e) Which matrices has the entry at row 1 and column 3 equal to 10?
f) Which are column matrices?
g) Which are row matrices?
h) Find AT,CT,ET,GTAT,CT,ET,GT.

For each matrix below, determine the order and state whether it is a square matrix.

 
a) order: 2 × 4. Number of rows and columns are not equal therefore not a square matrix.
b) order: 3 × 3. Number of rows and columns are equal therefore this matrix is a square matrix.
c) order: 1 × 4. Number of rows and columns are not equal therefore not a square matrix. A matrix with one row is called a row matrix (or a row vector).
d) order: 2 × 2. Number of rows and columns are equal therefore this is square matrix.
e) order: 1 × 1. Number of rows and columns are equal therefore this matrix is a square matrix.
