WHAT IS MATRIX ?
. Matrix a set of numbers arranged in rows and
columns so as to form a rectangular array . The
numbers are called the elements, or entries, of
z
the matrix.
. Matrices have wide applications
in engineering, physics, economics,
and statistics as well as in various branches
of mathematics.
z ORDER OF MATRIX
▪ The order of the matrix is defined as
the number of rows and columns. The
number of rows is represented by ‘m’
and the number of columns is
represented by ‘n’. Therefore the order
of the matrix is equal to m x n, and it is
also called as ‘m by n’.
..If A and B are the two matrices, then the product of the two matrices
A and B are denoted by:
X = AB
Hence, the product of two matrices is the dot product of the two
matrices.
• Condition: The number of columns of the first matrix in the
multiplication process must equal the number of rows of the
second matrix.
• The result (product) will have the same number of rows as in the
first matrix, and the same number of columns as in the second
matrix.

Addition of matrix
Addition of matrix is the basic operation performed, to add two or
more matrices. Matrix addition is possible only if the order of the
given matrices are the same. By order we mean, the number of rows
and columns are the same for the matrices.
..We will take the elements of one matrix and subtract them from
the respective elements of the other matrix.
