What to Focus On

  • A square matrix A is singular if |A| = 0.
  • A square matrix A is non-singular if |A| ≠ 0.
  • Only non-singular matrices have inverses.
  • Minor M_ij is the determinant after removing row i and column j.
  • Cofactor C_ij = (-1)^(i+j) × M_ij.
  • Cofactors form a matrix whose transpose is the adjoint.
  • Adjoint is the transpose of the cofactor matrix.
  • For a 2×2 matrix [[a, b], [c, d]], adjoint is [[d, -b], [-c, a]].
  • A(adj A) = (adj A)A = |A|I

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The inverse of a matrix is just 1 divided by each element of the matrix, like reciprocals in numbers.

Adjoint of a matrix is the same as its transpose.

If determinant of a matrix is zero, its inverse is also zero.
