To find the inverse of a matrix, you basically append (not add) the identity to the matrix, then solve it so that the identity is on the left side. The contents of the right side of your matrix will be the inverse. For instance:
[A] = [ [1 0] [2 1] ] (original matrix)
[A] = [ [1 0] [2 1] | [1 0] [0 1] ] (appending the identity of a 2x2 matrix)
(the bolded line is an imaginary divider)
Next, you try to solve it so that the identity is shifted to the left side. The matrix's inverse will be the contents of the right.
[A] = [ [1 0] [0 1] | [1 0] [2 -1] ]
[A]-1 = [ [1 0] [2 -1] ]

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.
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.
Define inverse of matrix?
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.
Which matrix has no multiplicative inverse?
A rectangular (non-square) matrix.
What does rotation mean in termsof inverse of orthogonal matrix?
The inverse of a rotation matrix represents a rotation in the opposite direction, by the same angle, about the same axis. Since M-1M = I, M-1(Mv) = v. Thus, any matrix inverse will "undo" the transformation of the original matrix.
