Inverse

Suppose AA and BB are square matrices of the same order. If AB=BA=IAB = BA = I then BB is called the inverse of AA and is denoted by A1A^{−1}.

A1=adjAAA^{-1}=\frac{\text{adj}\,A}{\lvert{A}\rvert}

Singular or Non-singular

A square matrix is singular iff A=0\lvert{A}\rvert=0. Otherwise its non-singular or invertible.

Properties of Inverse

  • (AB)1=B1A1(AB)^{-1}=B^{-1}A^{-1}
  • (AT)1=(A1)T(A^T)^{-1}=(A^{-1})^{T}
