Addition of Matrices: Let A and B be two matrices each of order m × n. Then their sum A + B is a matrix of order m × n and is obtained by adding the corresponding elements of A and B.
Properties of Matrix Addition:
Matrix addition is commutative i.e., A + B = B + A
Matrix addition is associative for any three matrices A, B and C. A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C.
Existence of identity. A null matrix is identity element for addition. i.e., A + 0 = A = 0 + A.
Cancelation laws hold good in case of matrices. A + B = A + C ⇒ B = C.
Subtraction of Matrices: For two matrices A and B of the same order, we define A – B = A + (- B).
Properties of Matrices Multiplication
Matrix multiplication is not commutative in general for any two matrices AB ≠ BA.
Matrix multiplication is associative i.e., (AB) C = A (BC) when both sides are defined.
Matrix multiplication is distributed over matrix addition i.e., A (B + C) = AB + AC (A + B) C = AC + BC.
If A is an n × n matrix then InA = A = AIn
The product of two matrices can be the null matrix while neither of them is the null matrix.
Definition A rectangular arrangement of numbers (which may be real or complex numbers) in rows and columns, is called a matrix. This arrangement is enclosed by small ( ) or big [ ] brackets. The numbers are called the elements of the matrix or entries in the matrix.
Order of a matrix
A matrix having m rows and n columns is called a matrix of order m×n or simply m×n matrix (read as an m by n matrix). A matrix A of order m×n is usually written in the following manner:
A matrix of order m × n contains mn elements. Every row of such a matrix contains n elements and every column contains m elements.
Equality of matrices
Two matrix A and B are said to be equal matrix if they are of same order and their corresponding elements are equal.
Types of matrices

Row matrix: A matrix is said to be a row matrix or row vector if it has only one row and any number of columns. Example: [5 0 3] is a row matrix of order 1× 3 and [2] is a row matrix of order 1×1.
Column matrix: A matrix is said to be a column matrix or column vector if it has only one column and any number of rows. Example: \(\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 \\ 3 \\ -6 \end{matrix} \right]\) is a column matrix of order 3 × 1 and [2] is a column matrix of order 1 × 1. Observe that [2] is both a row matrix as well as a column matrix.
Singleton matrix: If in a matrix there is only one element then it is called singleton matrix. Thus, A = [aij]m×n is a singleton matrix, if m = n =1 Example: [2], [3], [a], [–3] are singleton matrices.
Null or zero matrix: If in a matrix all the elements are zero then it is called a zero matrix and it is generally denoted by O. Thus A = [aij]m×n is a zero matrix if aij = 0 for all i and j. Example: \(\left[ 0 \right] ,\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix},\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 0 \end{matrix} \right] ,\left[ \begin{matrix} 0 & 0 \end{matrix} \right]\) are all zero matrices, but of different orders.
Square matrix: If number of rows and number of columns in a matrix are equal, then it is called a square matrix. Thus A = [aij]m×n is a square matrix if m = n. Example: \(\left[ \begin{matrix} { a }_{ 11 } & { a }_{ 12 } & { a }_{ 13 } \\ { a }_{ 21 } & { a }_{ 22 } & { a }_{ 23 } \\ { a }_{ 31 } & { a }_{ 32 } & { a }_{ 33 } \end{matrix} \right]\) is a square matrix of order 3×3. (i) If m ≠ n then matrix is called a rectangular matrix. (ii) The elements of a square matrix A for which i = j, i.e. a11, a22, a33, ….. amn are called diagonal elements and the line joining these elements is called the principal diagonal or leading diagonal of matrix A.
Diagonal matrix: If all elements except the principal diagonal in a square matrix are zero, it is called a diagonal matrix. Thus a square matrix A = [aij] is a diagonal matrix if aij ≠ 0 when i ≠ j. Example: \(\left[ \begin{matrix} 2 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 3 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 4 \end{matrix} \right]\) is a diagonal matrix of order 3× 3, which can be denoted by diag [2, 3, 4].
Identity matrix: A square matrix in which elements in the main diagonal are all ‘1’ and rest are all zero is called an identity matrix or unit matrix. Thus, the square matrix A = [aij] is an identity matrix, if We denote the identity matrix of order n by In. Example: \(\left[ 1 \right] ,\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix},\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{matrix} \right]\) are identity matrices of order 1, 2 and 3 respectively.
Scalar matrix: A square matrix whose all non diagonal elements are zero and diagonal elements are equal is called a scalar matrix. Thus, if A = [aij] is a square matrix and , then A is a scalar matrix. Unit matrix and null square matrices are also scalar matrices.
Triangular matrix: A square matrix [aij] is said to be triangular matrix if each element above or below the principal diagonal is zero. It is of two types (i) Upper triangular matrix: A square matrix [aij] is called the upper triangular matrix, if aij = 0 when i > j. Example: \(\left[ \begin{matrix} 3 & 1 & 2 \\ 0 & 4 & 3 \\ 0 & 0 & 6 \end{matrix} \right] \) is an upper triangular matrix of order 3 × 3. (ii) Lower triangular matrix: A square matrix [aij] is called the lower triangular matrix, if aij = 0 when i< j. Example: \(\left[ \begin{matrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 2 & 3 & 0 \\ 4 & 5 & 2 \end{matrix} \right]\) is a lower triangular matrix of order 3 × 3.
Trace of a matrix
The sum of diagonal elements of a square matrix. A is called the trace of matrix A , which is denoted by tr A.
Properties of trace of a matrix Let A = [aii]n×n and B = [bij]n×n and λ be a scalar
tr(λA) = λ tr(A)
tr(A – B) = tr(A) – tr(B)
tr(AB) = tr(BA)
tr(A)= tr(A’) or tr (AT)
tr(In) = n
tr (0)= 0
tr(AB) ≠ trA.trB
Addition and subtraction of matrices
If A = [aij]m×n and B = [bij]m×n are two matrices of the same order then their sum A+B is a matrix whose each element is the sum of corresponding elements i.e., A + B = [aij + bij]m×n. Similarly, their subtraction is defined as A – B = [aij – bij]m×n
Matrix addition and subtraction can be possible only when matrices are of the same order. Properties of matrix addition : If A, B and C are matrices of same order, then
A + B = B + A (Commutative law)
(A + B) + C = A + (B + C) (Associative law)
A + O = O + A = A, where O is zero matrix which is additive identity of the matrix.
A + (–A) = O = (–A) + A , where (–A) is obtained by changing the sign of every element of A, which is additive inverse of the matrix.
