From Wolfram MathWorld:

The inverse of a square matrix A, sometimes called a reciprocal matrix, is a matrix A-1 such that

AA-1=I

where I is the identity matrix.

How do you find a variable in a matrix if there is no inverse?

The fact that the matrix does not have an inverse does not necessarily mean that none of the variables can be found.


Which matrix has no multiplicative inverse?

A rectangular (non-square) matrix.


How do you use casio fx-991ms to solve matrices inverse?

To find the inverse of a matrix using the Casio fx-991MS, first, ensure your calculator is in matrix mode by pressing the MODE button and selecting matrix. Then, input your matrix by pressing SHIFT followed by MATRIX, selecting a matrix (e.g., A), and entering the dimensions and elements. After the matrix is entered, access the matrix menu again, select your matrix, and press the SHIFT button followed by the x^-1 key to compute the inverse. The calculator will display the inverse matrix if it exists.


How to find the Inverse of a square symmetric matrix?

You can factorize the matrix using LU or LDLT factorization algorithm. inverse of a diagonal matrix (D) is really simple. To find the inverse of L, which is a lower triangular matrix, you can find the answer in this link.www.mcs.csueastbay.edu/~malek/TeX/Triangle.pdfSince (A T )-1 = (A-1 )T for all matrix, you'll just have to find inverse of L and D.


Why order doesn't matter when you find inverse of the matrix specificly?

When finding the inverse of a matrix, order doesn't matter because the operation of taking the inverse is inherently defined for square matrices. Specifically, if ( A ) is an invertible matrix, then its inverse ( A^{-1} ) satisfies the property ( A A^{-1} = I ) and ( A^{-1} A = I ), where ( I ) is the identity matrix. This means that multiplying ( A ) by its inverse will always yield the identity matrix, regardless of the order in which the matrices are multiplied. However, note that the order does matter when multiplying different matrices together; it's only the specific case of a matrix and its inverse that ensures commutativity in this regard.
