Many problems that you have encountered in earlier grades and in different courses involve systems of equations in one way or another.One idea you may not have seen before is called Heron’s Formula. This is a formula used to calculate the area of a triangle. In the formula shown, the side lengths of a triangle are represented by the variables a, b, and c.
A 5 √______________________
(s(s 2 a)(s 2 b)(s 2 c))
s 5 (a 1 b 1 c)
___________ 2
This amounts to a system of equations you can use to determine the area of a triangle.
What other problems have you encountered before that you could use matrices to help you solve?

Recall that for any real number n, the multiplicative inverse is 1 __ n because the product of n and 1 __ n is the multiplicative identity, or 1 . Similarly, when a matrix is multiplied by its inverse matrix, their product is the identity matrix .
The multiplicativeinverseofamatrix(or just inverse) of A is designated as A21, and is a matrix such that A ? A21 5 1 . Non-square matrices do not have inverses .

Problem 2 Solving Systems with Matrices
Matrices can be used to solve a system of equations . A system can be written as a matrixequation, or an equation with matrices .
Consider a system of three linear equations in three variables, written in standard form: Ax 1 By 1 Cz 5 D . The system can be written as a matrix equation A ? X 5 B, by writing it as the product of a coefficientmatrix and a variablematrix equal to a constantmatrix .
A coefficientmatrixis a square matrix that consists of each coefficient of each equation in the system of equations, in order, when they are written in standard form . A variablematrixis a matrix in one column that represents all of the variables in the system of equations . A constantmatrixis a matrix in one column that represents each of the constants in the system of equations .
In a system with n equations, the coefficient matrix will be an n 3 n matrix, the variable matrix will be an n 3 1 matrix, and the constant matrix will be an n x 1 matrix .
Consider the system of three linear equations in three variables:
2x 2 y 2 2z 5 3
3x 1 y 2 2z 5 11
22x 2 y 1 z 5 28 .
Each equation is written in standard form Ax 1 By 1 Cz 5 D .
In the matrix equation A? X 5 B, A is a 3 3 3 matrix consisting of each coefficient, X is a 3 3 1 matrix representing all of the variables in the system, and B is a 3 3 1 matrix consisting of each constant term .

Recall that when any row of a matrix is a multiple of another row, or any column is a multiple of another column, the inverse of the matrix does not exist . When the coefficient matrix is noninvertible, the system is not able to be solved . In this case, the system will either have many solutions or no solution .
When using technology, the calculator will return the same error message for both cases, because in both cases, the inverse of the coefficient matrix does not exist . You can use the constant matrix to differentiate between a system with many solutions and a system with no solution .

Chapter 2 Summary 161
Solve Systems of Three Linear Equations in Three Variables by Using SubstitutionTo solve a system of three linear equations using substitution, the first step is to solve for one variable in one of the equations . Then substitute this expression for that variable in the other two equations . The two new equations will then have only two unknown variables and can be solved using either substitution or linear combinations .
Example
Use substitution to solve the system 23x1 y1 5z5 25
24x1 2y1 z 5 13
25x1 3y1 6z5 4 .
Solve the first equation for the variable y . 23x 1 y1 5z 5 25 y 5 3x 2 5z 2 5
Substitute this equation into the other two equations .24x1 2y 1 z 5 13 25x1 3y1 6z5 4

Solve Systems of Three Linear Equations in Three Variables by Using gaussian EliminationThe goal of Gaussian elimination is to use linear combinations to isolate one variable for each equation . When using this method, you can:
• swap the positions of two equations .• multiply an equation by a nonzero constant .• multiply an equation by a nonzero constant and add to result to one of the other equations .

Determine the Dimensions of a MatrixA matrix is an array of numbers composed of rows and columns . The dimensions of the matrix are the number of rows by the number of columns . The dimensions of a matrix with a rows and b columns are written as a 3 b .
Example
Determine the dimensions of the matrix .

25 210 13
The dimensions of matrix A are 6 3 3 because it has 6 rows and 3 columns .
Identify Specific Matrix ElementsEach number in a matrix is a matrix element . Each matrix element is labeled using the notation aij, where i represents the row the element is in and j represents the column the element is in . Therefore, the notation aij, represents the matrix element in the ith row and the jth column .
Example
Determine the matrix element represented by the notation b15 .

5 .2 21 .3 7 .0 24 .3 29 .1 11 .4
3 .7 26 .6 0 .5 1 .9 25 .4 28 .6
Matrix element b15 is 29 .1 because it is the element in row 5 and column 1 .

Perform Matrix Operations: Addition, Subtraction, and MultiplicationMatrices that have the same dimensions can be added or subtracted . The matrix elements in the corresponding location are added or subtracted . A matrix can also be multiplied by a constant, a process called scalar multiplication . Each element of the matrix is multiplied by the constant . Two matrices can be multiplied only if the number of columns in the first matrix is the same as the number of rows in the second matrix . An element apq of the product matrix is determined by multiplying each element in row p of the first matrix with an element from column q in the second matrix and calculating the sum of these products .

Determine the Inverse of a MatrixThe multiplicative inverse of a square matrix A, labeled as A21, is a matrix such that when matrix A is multiplied by it the result is the identity matrix . In symbols, A ? A21 5 I, where I is the matrix with the same dimensions as matrix Ahaving all zeros except for a diagonal from the upper left to the lower right where the elements are all ones . Technology can be used to find the inverse of a square matrix . Not every square matrix has an inverse, and non-square matrices do not have inverses .
Example
Use matrix multiplication to verify that matrix J21 is the inverse of matrix J .

Since the product matrix J ? J21 yields the identity matrix, J21 is the inverse of matrix J .
