1. Introduction
Matrices are an essential concept in mathematics, with applications ranging from solving
systems of linear equations to transforming geometric objects. They allow for the
representation of data in a structured way that can be manipulated efficiently to solve real-
world problems. Matrices are not only a cornerstone of theoretical mathematics but also
find widespread use in various fields such as physics, engineering, economics, computer
science, and more. Understanding matrix theory provides a valuable toolset for
professionals in these areas, enabling them to model and solve complex systems.

A = [a11 a12 ... a1n; a21 a22 ... a2n; ... am1 am2 ... amn]
Matrices can be classified into several types: Row Matrix, Column Matrix, Square Matrix,
Identity Matrix, Zero Matrix.
Matrix Addition:
Given A = [[1, 2], [3, 4]] and B = [[5, 6], [7, 8]]
Matrix Multiplication:
Given A = [[1, 2], [3, 4]] and B = [[5, 6], [7, 8]]
Transpose of a Matrix:
Inverse of a Matrix:
1. Solving Systems of Linear Equations: Matrices allow for the efficient solution of systems
of linear equations. For example, the system:
x + y = 5, 2x + 3y = 12
