In general, matrix multiplication is not commutative (i.e., AB = BA). However, in certain special cases the commutative property does hold. Show that (a) if D1 and D2 are n × n diagonal matrices, then D1D2 = D2D1. (b) if A is an n × n matrix and B = a0I + a1A + a2A2 +· · ·+akAk where a0, a1, . . . , ak are scalars, then AB = BA

Matrices

‘Matrices’ is the plural form of the word matrix, and it is basically a spreadsheet in the form of a box. In mathematics, various functions can be carried out with matrices. Generally, a matrix comes in the shape of a square or rectangle. The elements are distributed horizontally in the form of rows, and vertically in the form of columns.
