Inverse of A
Only defined for square, non‑singular matrices. Try a 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 with non‑zero determinant.
Inverse of B
Only defined for square, non‑singular matrices. Try a 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 with non‑zero determinant.
Works great for linear algebra exercisesUse it to check hand‑worked Gaussian elimination
How to use this tool
- Choose dimensions for matrices A and B (1x1 up to 4x4), then optionally apply quick zero or identity presets.
- Enter matrix entries and review arithmetic operations, determinant, inverse, transpose, rank, and RREF.
- Copy or download the full results report as JSON for QA logs or homework review.
Designed as a matrix inverse and determinant calculator
- Quickly verify answers from linear algebra homework with a visual matrix calculator.
- Experiment with different matrix sizes to see when matrix multiplication, determinants, and inverses are defined.
- Use determinants and inverses to understand when systems of equations have unique solutions versus no or infinite solutions.
What this online matrix calculator supports
- Matrix addition, subtraction, and multiplication for matrices up to 4x4.
- Determinant computation via Gaussian elimination (determinant calculator for 2x2, 3x3, and 4x4).
- Matrix inversion using an augmented matrix and row operations (matrix inverse calculator for square, non-singular matrices).
- Transpose, reduced row echelon form (RREF), and rank for quick linear algebra diagnostics.
FAQ
- Can this matrix calculator handle very large matrices?
- This tool focuses on small matrices (up to 4x4) ideal for teaching and exam questions rather than huge numerical problems or high-dimensional numerical linear algebra.
- How are determinants and inverses computed in this matrix inverse calculator?
- Determinants use an elimination-based approach and inverses are computed via Gauss-Jordan elimination on an augmented matrix [A | I], matching standard linear algebra techniques.
- Why do I sometimes see no matrix inverse?
- If a square matrix has determinant 0, it is singular and has no inverse. Try changing a row or column to make it full rank so the inverse exists.
