(a) If A is any non singular matrix then its inverse can be calculated
1 4
𝐴𝐴 =
3 2
Solution. By Gauss-Jordan method:
𝑨𝑨 |𝑰𝑰 = 1 4
�
1 0
3 2 0 1
= 𝑰𝑰 �𝑨𝑨−𝟏𝟏
1 1 1
𝐴𝐴 = 1 2 3
1 3 4
Solution. By Gauss-Jordan method:
1 1 1 1 0 0
𝑨𝑨 |𝑰𝑰 = 1 2 3 �0 1 0
1 3 4 0 0 1

Problem 3. Using Gauss-Jordan method, find the inverse of the following:
2 3 1
𝐴𝐴 = 1 3 3
0 1 2
Solution. By Gauss-Jordan method:
2 3 1 1 0 0 𝑅𝑅1 ↔𝑅𝑅2 1 3 3 0 1 0
𝑨𝑨 |𝑰𝑰 = 1 3 3 �0 1 0 2 3 1 �1 0 0
