Transpose and find the inverse of matrices

“

- [Instructor] Two very common tasks that you'll perform in linear algebra are transposing matrices and finding the inverse of a matrix. In this movie, I will show you how to do both of those tasks in MATLAB. I will start with a quick overview in PowerPoint and then move over to MATLAB itself. Let's start with transposing matrices. The transposing of a matrix is where you swap the rows in the columns according to a specific algorithm. Let's say that we have our original matrix A which is two rows and three columns with one, two, three in the first row and four, five, fix in the second row. If I want to transpose that matrix and change it into a three by two, then it would look like transposed matrix, A transpose or A prime, and that has the first row becoming the first column and the second row becoming the second column. I used the numbers one through six so it would be obvious where the transposition occurs and what the rule is. You can also invert a matrix, and inverting a matrix…
