Using elementary transformations, find the inverse of matrix [2513], if it exists.


Open in App
Solution

Let A=[2513]
We know that A=IA
[2513]=[1001]A
Applying R1R1R2
[215313]=[100101]A
[1213]=[1101]A
Applying R2R2R1
[121132]=[11011(1)]A
[1201]=[1112]A
Applying R1R12R2
[12(0)22(1)01]=[12(1)12(2)12]A
[1001]=[3512]A
I=[3512]A
This is similar to I=A1A
Thus, A1=[3512]
