A matrix is a rectangular array of numbers arranged in a sequence and enclosed in brackets. A matrix is a rectangular array of mathematical elements arranged into rows and columns according to algebraic rules.

Matrices and Determinants

A pair of parentheses $\begin{pmatrix}a&b\\c&d\end{pmatrix}$or a square bracket $\begin{bmatrix}a&b\\c&d\end{bmatrix}$ is used to write matrices (plural of matrix). A matrix is usually denoted by capital letters such as $A, B, C,$ and $X, Y,$ and $Z$. The matrices are used to solve the simultaneous equations.

The horizontal lines of elements of a matrix are called rows of the matrix. The vertical lines of elements of a matrix are called the columns of a matrix. The number of rows and columns of a matrix is called the order of the matrix.
