Question

equality of matrices​

Answer 1

Answer:

Equality of Matrices

Two matrices A and B are known as equality of matrices if both matrices is having same order.

If two matrices are equal then its corresponding terms will be equal.

Example

If the following two matrices are equal then find the values of x,y,w and z.

the following two matrices are equal then find the values of x,y,w and z.

x y

w z

=

1 5

7 9

Solution:

We can say the above two matrices are equal because they are having same order (2 x 2).

Corresponding term of x is 1

Corresponding term of y is 5

Corresponding term of w is 7

Corresponding term of z is 9

Therefore

The values of x = 1, y = 5, w = 7 and z = 9
