    Uploaded by

    Riddhima Mukherjee
    This document provides an introduction and objectives for a unit on matrices and determinants. It covers matrices, matrix operations, the relationship between matrices and linear transformations, the concepts of rank and the inverse of a matrix. It also covers determinants, their properties, and how they can be used to understand aspects of matrices. The main objectives are to introduce matrices and their operations, relate matrices to linear transformations and introduce rank and inverses, introduce determinants and some of their properties, and use determinants to understand matrices.

    INTRODUCTION
    In Unit 14, you have seen the role that linear tra~lsformatio~ls play in uiiderstanding the
    structure of the solutiolls set of a systeiil of linear equations. The con~putational aspects
    of linear t ~a~~f onnat i ons can be understood by using matrices. We introduce matices
    and various operations involvilig matrices in this unit. The notions of rank and inverse
    of a matrix are also introduced. After introducing the notion of determinant of a square
    matrix, some important properties of determinants are observed. These properties are
    useful in co~nputing the determinants more efficiently. Finally, determinants are used to
    understand certain aspects of matrices.
    Objectives
    The nlain objectives of this uuit are
    * To introduce the notioli of matrices and operations involving matrices.
    *
    To understand the relation between matrices and linear transformations and thus 1
    i~ltroduce the concepts of rank and inverse of a matrix,
    i
    * To introduce determinants of order 11and give some useful properties of
    determinants, and
    * To understa~~d certai~l~aspects of matrices in terms of detenninads.

    MATRICES

    We know that linear transformations are very inti~nately coaaected with systenls of
    linear equations. The linear transfonnations are also related to certain objects called
