Question

Transcribed Image Text:The image shows a handwritten mathematical expression involving matrix operations. The matrix is defined as follows:
Let \( A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 5 \\ 0 & 2 \\ 1 & 4 \\ 2 & 8 \end{bmatrix} \).
The task is to find the product \( A^T A \), where \( A^T \) denotes the transpose of matrix \( A \).
- **Matrix \( A \):** A 4x2 matrix with the elements arranged as described above.
- **Goal:** Calculate the product of the transpose of \( A \) and \( A \) itself.
To solve this, follow these steps:
1. **Transpose \( A \):** The transpose of a matrix is obtained by swapping its rows and columns.
2. **Multiply \( A^T \) and \( A \):** Recall that the number of columns in the first matrix must match the number of rows in the second matrix when performing matrix multiplication.
This is a common exercise in linear algebra involving matrix operations and product calculations.
