Symmetric Matrix
A square matrix A = [a i j ] is said to be symmetric if its (i,j) t h element is the same as its (j,i) t h element. i.e a i j = a j i " i, j A square matrix A is said to be symmetric, if A = A ..
Skew-Symmetric Matrix:
A square matrix A = [a i j ] is said to be skew-symmetric if the (i,j) t h element of A is the negative of the (j,i) t h element of A i.e., if a i j = -a j i for all i, j. In particular, for i = j, we have Thus the diagonal elements of a skew symmetric ..
Properties of Symmetric and Skew Symmetric Matrices

Examples:
skew-symmetric for every square matrix A. That is any square matrix is expressible as the sum of a symmetric matrix and a skew-symmetric matrix. 5. A matrix which is both symmetric and skew symme..
Summary
>If any two rows or columns of a determinant are equal, then its value is zero. If each element of a row or column of a determinant multiplied by k, then its value is multiplied by k. If two rows or columns of determinant are proportional, the value of the determinant is zero. A square A = [a i j ]..
