MatricesMM1 module 3, lecture 1

Slide number 2

Matrices lesson 1 objectives

• After this lesson you should have a clear understanding of:• What matrices are;• Performing basic operations on matrices;• Special forms of matrices

Slide number 3

What is a matrix?

• A matrix is a rectangular array of elements

• The elements may be of any type (e.g. integer, real, complex, logical, or even other matrices).

• In this course we will only consider matrices that have integer or real number values.

• a32 = 2

• a41 = 3

• a43 = 4

Slide number 7

Matrix operations: scalar multiplication

• Multiplying an m n matrix by a scalar results in an m n matrix with each of its elements multiplied by the scalar.

Matrix operations: addition…

• Adding or subtracting an m  n matrix by an m  n matrix results in an m  n matrix with each of its elements added or subtracted.

…Matrix operations: addition

• Note that matrices being added or subtracted must be of the same order.

Special matrices: row and column

• A 1  n matrix is called a row matrix.e.g.

• An m  1 matrix is called a column matrix.e.g.

Slide number 11

Special matrices: square

• An n  n matrix is called a square matrix.i.e. a square matrix has the same number of rows and columns.e.g.

Slide number 12

Special matrices: distance

• A distance matrix is a square matrix that shows the distances between locations. Distance matrices are frequently used on road maps to show the number of kilometres between major cities. Note that the main diagonal elements are all zeros.
