Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the trace of a 2x2 matrix A = [[a, b], [c, d]]? (2022)
  • Step 1: Identify the matrix A. In this case, A = [[a, b], [c, d]].
  • Step 2: Locate the diagonal elements of the matrix. The diagonal elements are 'a' (top left) and 'd' (bottom right).
  • Step 3: Add the diagonal elements together. This means you calculate a + d.
  • Step 4: The result from Step 3 is the trace of the matrix A.
