DETERMINANTS
• A Determinant of a matrix represents a single
number.
• We obtain this value by multiplying and
adding its elements in a special way.

• Determinant of a matrix of order one

𝐴 =
𝑎11 𝑎12
𝑎21 𝑎22
= 𝑎11 𝑎22 - 𝑎12 𝑎21

Properties of Determinants
Property 1:The value of the determinant remains unchanged if its
rows and columns are interchanged.
Note: det(A) = det(A’) Where A’ = transpose of A
Property 2: If any two rows (or columns) of a determinant are
interchanged,then sign of determinant changes
Property 3: If any two rows (or columns) of a
determinant are identical (all corresponding elements
are same), then value of determinant is zero
• Verification: If we interchange the identical rows (or columns)
of the deteminent ∆, then ∆ does not change. But by Property
2 ∆ has changed its sign. Then ∆ = - ∆
ie ∆ = 0
Property 4: If each element of a row (or a column) of a
determinant is multiplied by a constant k, then its value
gets multiplied by k.
Note:
• Multiplying a determinant by k means
multiply elements of only one row (or one
column) by k.
• If A = [aij]3×3,then | k.A| = k3 |A|
Property 5:If some or all elements of a row or column of a determinant
are expressed as sum of two (or more) terms, then the determinant
can be expressed as sum of two (or more) determinants.
Property 6: To each element of any row or column of a determinant,
the equimultiples of corresponding elements of other row (or column)
are added, then the value of determinant remains the same
Area of a triangle
• Area of a triangle with vertices (x1, y1), (x2, y2)
and (x3, y3) is
∆ =

x1 y1 1
x2 y2 1
x3 y3 1
Minor
• Minor of an element aij of a determinant of
order n is the determinant of the square sub-
matrix of order (n-1) obtained by leaving ith
row and j th column.
• Minor of aij is denoted by Mij.

Co factor
• Cofactor of an element aij , denoted by Aij is
Aij = (–1)i + j Mij
where Mij is minor of aij.
Note: Aij =
𝑀𝑖𝑗 𝑖𝑓 𝑖 + 𝑗 𝑖𝑠 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛
−𝑀𝑖𝑗 𝑖𝑓 𝑖 + 𝑗 𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑑𝑑

• M22 = Minor of a22 = Minor of 2 = 1

Adjoint of a matrix
• Adjoint of a matrix A = [aij]n × n is the transpose of the
matrix [Aij]n × n, where Aij is the cofactor of the element aij .
Denoted by adj A.
• If A =
𝑎11 𝑎12 𝑎13
𝑎21 𝑎22 𝑎23
𝑎31 𝑎32 𝑎33
adj A = Transpose of
𝐴11 𝐴12 𝐴13
𝐴21 𝐴22 𝐴23
𝐴31 𝐴32 𝐴33
=
𝐴11 𝐴21 𝐴31
𝐴12 𝐴22 𝐴32
𝐴13 𝐴23 𝐴33
Theorem 1 : If A be any square matrix of order n, then
A(adj A) = |A|In = (adj A) A
Verification: Let A =
𝑎11 𝑎12 𝑎13
𝑎21 𝑎22 𝑎23
𝑎31 𝑎32 𝑎33
then adj A =
𝐴11 𝐴21 𝐴31
𝐴12 𝐴22 𝐴32
𝐴13 𝐴23 𝐴33
Sum of the product of elements of a row (or a column) with corresponding
cofactor is equal to lAl, otherwise zero.
∴ A (adj A) =
lAl 0 0
0 lAl 0
0 0 lAl
= lAl
1 0 0
0 1 0
0 0 1
= lAl I ..…. (i)
Similarly (adj A) A = lAl I …… (ii)
By (i) & (ii) A(adj A) = |A|I n = (adj A) A
SINGULAR & NON SINGULAR
• Singular:
A square matrix A is said to be singular if
| A | = 0
• Non Singular
A square matrix A is said to be non-singular if
|A| ≠ 0.
Theorem 2: If A and B are nonsingular matrices of the
same order, then AB and BA are also nonsingular
matrices of the same order.
i.e. If |A|≠ 0 & |B|≠ 0
Then |AB|≠ 0 & |BA|≠ 0
Theorem 3: The determinant of the product of matrices is
equal to the product of their respective determinants.
i.e. |AB| =|A| |B|
Invertible Matrices
• If A & B are Square Matrices such that
AB = BA = I
B is called inverse matrix of A
B = A-1
A is said to be invertible
Theorem 4 : A square matrix A is invertible if and only if A is
nonsingular matrix
Verification: Let A be an invertible matrix. Then there exists a matrix
B such that AB = In = BA
⇒ |AB| =| In |
⇒ |A| |B| = I [ ∵ |AB| =|A| |B|]
⇒ |A| ≠ 0
⇒ A is a non-singular matrix
Conversly, let A be a non-singular matrix of order n. Then |A| ≠ 0
A(adj A) = |A|In = (adj A) A (by thm 1)
⇒ A
1
|A|
adj A = In =
1
|A|
adj A A
⇒ A-1 =
1
|A|
adj A
Hence A is an invertible matrix.
Consistency of the System of Linear Equation
Consistent system
A system of equations is said to be consistent
if its solution (one or more) exists.
Inconsistent system
A system of equations is said to be
inconsistent if its solution does not exist.
Solution of system of linear equations using inverse of
a matrix
If a1x+b1y+c1z = d1
a2x+b2y+c2z = d2
a3x+b3y+c3z = d3
writing these equation as AX = B
where A =
𝑎1 𝑏1 𝑐1
𝑎2 𝑏2 𝑐2
𝑎3 𝑏3 𝑐3
, X =
𝑥
𝑦
𝑧
and B =
𝑑1
𝑑2
𝑑3
Then X = A-1B
(i) |A|≠ 0 , there exists unique solution.
(ii) |A| = 0 and (adj A)B ≠ 0, then there exists no solution.
(iii)|A| = 0 and (adj A)B = 0, then system may or may not be consistent.

Theorem 1 : If A be any square matrix of order n, then A(adj A) = |A|In = (adj A) A Verification: Let A = 𝑎11 𝑎12 𝑎13 𝑎21 𝑎22 𝑎23 𝑎31 𝑎32 𝑎33 then adj A = 𝐴11 𝐴21 𝐴31 𝐴12 𝐴22 𝐴32 𝐴13 𝐴23 𝐴33 Sum of the product of elements of a row (or a column) with corresponding cofactor is equal to lAl, otherwise zero. ∴ A (adj A) = lAl 0 0 0 lAl 0 0 0 lAl = lAl 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 = lAl I ..…. (i) Similarly (adj A) A = lAl I …… (ii) By (i) & (ii) A(adj A) = |A|I n = (adj A) A
  • 24. SINGULAR & NON SINGULAR • Singular: A square matrix A is said to be singular if | A | = 0 • Non Singular A square matrix A is said to be non-singular if |A| ≠ 0.
  • 25. Theorem 2: If A and B are nonsingular matrices of the same order, then AB and BA are also nonsingular matrices of the same order. i.e. If |A|≠ 0 & |B|≠ 0 Then |AB|≠ 0 & |BA|≠ 0 Theorem 3: The determinant of the product of matrices is equal to the product of their respective determinants. i.e. |AB| =|A| |B|
  • 26. Invertible Matrices • If A & B are Square Matrices such that AB = BA = I B is called inverse matrix of A B = A-1 A is said to be invertible
  • 27. Theorem 4 : A square matrix A is invertible if and only if A is nonsingular matrix Verification: Let A be an invertible matrix. Then there exists a matrix B such that AB = In = BA ⇒ |AB| =| In | ⇒ |A| |B| = I [ ∵ |AB| =|A| |B|] ⇒ |A| ≠ 0 ⇒ A is a non-singular matrix Conversly, let A be a non-singular matrix of order n. Then |A| ≠ 0 A(adj A) = |A|In = (adj A) A (by thm 1) ⇒ A 1 |A| adj A = In = 1 |A| adj A A ⇒ A-1 = 1 |A| adj A Hence A is an invertible matrix.
  • 28. Consistency of the System of Linear Equation Consistent system A system of equations is said to be consistent if its solution (one or more) exists. Inconsistent system A system of equations is said to be inconsistent if its solution does not exist.
  • 29. Solution of system of linear equations using inverse of a matrix If a1x+b1y+c1z = d1 a2x+b2y+c2z = d2 a3x+b3y+c3z = d3 writing these equation as AX = B where A = 𝑎1 𝑏1 𝑐1 𝑎2 𝑏2 𝑐2 𝑎3 𝑏3 𝑐3 , X = 𝑥 𝑦 𝑧 and B = 𝑑1 𝑑2 𝑑3 Then X = A-1B (i) |A|≠ 0 , there exists unique solution. (ii) |A| = 0 and (adj A)B ≠ 0, then there exists no solution. (iii)|A| = 0 and (adj A)B = 0, then system may or may not be consistent.
