Matrix multiplication has the following properties:
(i) Matrix multiplication is not commutative.
(ii) Matrix multiplication is associative ie., (AB) C = A (BC) wherever both sides of the equality
are defined.
(ii) Matrix multiplication is distributive over matrix addition ie, A (B + C) = AB + AC and
(B+ ©) A= BA + CA wherever both sides of the equality are defined.
(ee) IFA is an mxn matrix, then |, A=A=A Lye
(p) IEA is an mxn matrix and O is a null matrix, thet Ay. « Opep= Om p20d Opn ® Aman = Open
ie, the product of a matrix with a null matrix is a null matrix.
(ci) In matrix multiplication the product of two non-zero matrices may be a ‘zero-matrix’
AB = 0, does not imply that at least one of the A or B should be zero.
16. If Ais a square matrix, then we define A’, A and A"? = A". A.
17, ThA isa square matrix and a, dy, are constants, then
yA" + aA"! + aA"? +... +,_1A +a, is called a matrix polynomial.18. Transpose of a Matrix: Let A = [aj] be an m x n matrix. Then, the transpose of A, denoted by A’, is
an m x m matrix such that
A
ie, the matrix obtained by interchanging rows into columns, of a given matrix A is called the
transpose of A and is denoted by AT or A’.
Following are the properties of transpose of a matrix:
(AN =A (i) (A+B) = AT +B (iit) (kay = aT
(iv) (AB)? = BT AT (@) (ABC) = CTBTAT
19, A square matrix A = [aj] is called a symmetric matrix, if
aj=ayV ij ie, ASAT
20. A square matrix A = [aj] is called a skew symmetric matrix, if
a= — ay i,j ie, AT=—A
21. All main diagonal elements of a skew-symmetric matrix are zero,
22, Every square matrix can be uniquely expressed as the sum of a symmetric and a skew-symmetric
matrix
23, All positive integral powers of a symmetric matrix are symmetric.
24, All odd positive integral powers of a skew-symmetric matrix are skew-symmetric.
