How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter the four elements of Matrix A (a11, a12, a21, a22) and Matrix B row by row.
  2. Select the operation: addition, subtraction, and multiplication follow standard linear algebra rules.
  3. Determinant of a 2×2 matrix: det(A) = a11×a22 − a12×a21; a non-zero determinant means the matrix is invertible.
  4. Transpose swaps rows and columns; Trace is the sum of diagonal elements (a11 + a22).
  5. The inverse A⁻¹ is computed when det(A) ≠ 0: A⁻¹ = (1/det) × [[a22, -a12], [-a21, a11]].
  6. Matrix multiplication is not commutative — A×B and B×A generally give different results.
