MATLAB Simulation 4.1

This document contains an assignment to calculate determinants of matrices in MATLAB. It includes 3 matrices to calculate the determinants of: 1) a 5x5 matrix with the first 4 columns as 5s and the last column as 0s, 2) a 6x3 matrix formed by concatenating 2 3x3 magic matrices vertically, and 3) a 3x3 matrix with the 2nd and 3rd rows being multiples of 2. It is observed that determinants are 0 when a row is 0 or the matrix is non-square. The document also contains a 4x4 matrix A and instructions to find the determinants of A, its transpose AT, √3A, A3, and A−1 along

MATLAB ACTIVITY 4.1 Properties of Determinant

A. Create the following matrices using proper concatenations and syntax , then find the
determinant of each. Write the MATLAB syntax and output in the space provided.

Observing from the results of this task, what is/are the condition(s) that yield zero determinants in each
item? Explain it briefly
1. I notice that the row is zero then the determinant will also be 0
2. It can’t have a determinant if it is not a square matrix.
3. When the 2nd and last in a 3x3 entries is divisible with each other, the determinant can be
expected as 0
[ ]
1 0 −1 1
0 −1 1 0
B. Using appropriate syntax and the given matrix A=
1 0 −1 1
0 1 0 1
Find the following and write the applicable property of determinant
