  2. Matrix (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_(mathematics)

    Matrix (mathematics) An m × n matrix: the m rows are horizontal and the n columns are vertical. Each element of a matrix is often denoted by a variable with two subscripts. For example, a2,1 represents the element at the second row and first column of the matrix. In mathematics, a matrix (pl.: matrices) is a rectangular array or table of ...

    Requiring Algebra II for high school graduation gained traction across the United States in the early 2010s. [52] The Common Core mathematical standards recognize both the sequential as well as the integrated approach to teaching high-school mathematics, which resulted in increased adoption of integrated math programs for high school.

  4. Linear algebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_algebra

    Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerning linear equations such as: linear maps such as: and their representations in vector spaces and through matrices. [ 1 ][ 2 ][ 3 ] Linear algebra is central to almost all areas of mathematics.

  5. Trace (linear algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_(linear_algebra)

    Trace (linear algebra) In linear algebra, the trace of a square matrix A, denoted tr (A), [1] is defined to be the sum of elements on the main diagonal (from the upper left to the lower right) of A. The trace is only defined for a square matrix (n × n). In mathematical physics texts, if tr (A) = 0 then the matrix is said to be traceless.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics

    Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, theories and theorems that are developed and proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study ...

  7. Rotation matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix

    Noting that any identity matrix is a rotation matrix, and that matrix multiplication is associative, we may summarize all these properties by saying that the n × n rotation matrices form a group, which for n > 2 is non-abelian, called a special orthogonal group, and denoted by SO(n), SO(n,R), SO n, or SO n (R), the group of n × n rotation ...

  8. List of named matrices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_named_matrices

    A matrix whose elements are of the form 1/ (xi + yj) for (xi), (yj) injective sequences (i.e., taking every value only once). Centrosymmetric matrix. A matrix symmetric about its center; i.e., aij = an−i+1,n−j+1. Circulant matrix. A matrix where each row is a circular shift of its predecessor. Conference matrix.

  9. System of linear equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_of_linear_equations

    In mathematics, a system of linear equations (or linear system) is a collection of two or more linear equations involving the same variables. [1][2] For example, is a system of three equations in the three variables x, y, z. A solution to a linear system is an assignment of values to the variables such that all the equations are simultaneously ...
