4) Symmeric and Skew Symmetric Matrices.

PROCEDURE

Start the session by asking some questions about the previous knowledge of the students and by introducing the concept of matrices in general form. Now introduce the different topics step by step as follows.

Matrices

Introduction of matrices, order of the matrices, elements of matrices, definitions of zero, identity, square and diagonal matrices.

Operations on Matrices

Operations on the matrices addition, subtraction, multiplication and multiplication of matrices with scalar.

Transpose of a matrix

If A is matrix then transpose of a matrix is obtained by interchanging its rows and columns and is denoted by A'

Properties of the transpose of the matrices

i)   (A')'  =  A,   or   Transpose of the transpose matrix is the matrix itself

ii)    (kA)'  =  kA',  where k is any scalar

iii)   (A + B)' = A' + B'

Orthogonal Matrices

Let A be a matrix and A' is its transpose.

A square matrix of order n is said to be orthogonal if its transpose is equal to its inverse. A' = A^-1

or

A square matrix of order n is said to be orthogonal if product of the matrix and its transpose gives a unit matrix

Mathematically: AA' = I

Symmetric and Skew symmetric matrices

Symmetric Matrix : A matrix A is said to be symmetric if  A' = A

Skew symmetric matrix : A matrix is said to be skew symmetric if A' = -A

Theorem 1:
For a square matrix A with real entries A + A' is always symmetric matrix and A - A' is always skew symmetric matrix.

Proof:   Let A + A' = B,  then

B' = (A + A')' = A' + (A')' = A' + A = A + A' = B

⇒ B = A + A' is a symmetric matrix

Let C = A - A' ,  then 

C' = (A - A')' = A' - (A')' = A' - A = - (A - A') = - C

Symmetric and Skew Symmetric Matrices

Transpose of the matrices and its properties, Symmetric and skew symmetric matrices.

Representation of square matrices as the sum of symmetric and skew symmetric matrix.

Existence of non-zero matrices (square matrices of order 2) whose product is zero.

Invertible matrices and proof of uniqueness of inverse, if it exists.

Properties of Skew symmetric matrices

All diagonal elements of a skew-symmetric matrix are zero.

For skew-symmetric matrices of even order (i.e., n × n with n even), the determinant can be non-zero.

If n is odd, the determinant of any n × n skew-symmetric matrix is zero.

The trace of a skew-symmetric matrix is zero.

Explanation: Since the trace is the sum of the diagonal elements and all diagonal elements of A are zero, the trace must also be zero.

Corresponding Elements on the either side of the diagonal are equal but with opposite sign.

 Invertible matrices

If A and B are two square matrices of the same order such that AB =BA = I, then B is said to be inverse of A and is denoted by A^-1  such that A^-1  = B. In this case A is said to be invertible.

In other words :

 If A is invertible then A^-1 exists  or If  A^-1 exists then A is said to be invertible.

Theorem 3 : Inverse of a matrix if exist then it is unique.

Proof:  
If possible let us suppose that the matrix A has two inverse B and C

B is the inverse of A then  AB = BA = I………… (i)

C is the inverse of A then  AC = CA = I ……… (ii) 

From  (i) and (ii) we get

AB = AC  ⇒ B = C    …………. (Cancelling A on both side)

     ⇒ Both the inverse are same.
