What is an orthogonal matrix?
A matrix A is orthogonal if itstranspose is equal to it inverse. So AT is the transpose of A and A-1 is the inverse. We have AT=A-1 So we have : AAT= I, the identity matrix Since it is MUCH easier to find a transpose than an inverse, these matrices are easy to compute with. Furthermore, rotation matrices are orthogonal. The inverse of an orthogonal matrix is also orthogonal which can be easily proved directly from the definition.
What is a symmetric matrix?
a square matrix that is equal to its transpose
What is the meaning of transpose?
The transpose of a matrix A is the matrix B that is obtained by swapping the rows and columns of A into the columns and rows of B. In algebraic form, if A = {aij} then B = {aji} is its transpose, where 1 ≤ i ≤ n and 1 ≤ j ≤ m.
What is an adjoint matrix?
The classical adjoint of a square matrix A the transpose of the matrix who (i, j) entry is the a i j cofactor.
Is the row space of matrix an equivalent to the column space of matrix AT which is the transpose of matrix A?
Since the columns of AT equal the rows of A by definition, they also span the same space, so yes, they are equivalent.
