🔢 Matrix Calculator

אודות המחשבון הזה

A matrix calculator performs the core operations of linear algebra: addition and subtraction, multiplication, scalar multiplication, transpose, determinant and inverse for square matrices. Set the size, type in the numbers, and pick an operation to see the result matrix instantly.

You choose the number of rows and columns (up to 5×5), fill in the entries, and pick an operation. Addition and subtraction work entry by entry on two matrices of the same size; multiplication takes the dot product of each row of the first matrix with each column of the second, so the first matrix’s column count must equal the second’s row count. Transpose flips rows and columns, while the determinant and inverse apply only to square matrices — and the inverse exists only when the determinant is not zero.

For a worked example, the 2×2 matrix [[1, 2], [3, 4]] has determinant 1·4 − 2·3 = -2, and because that is non-zero it has an inverse, (1/-2)·[[4, -2], [-3, 1]] = [[-2, 1], [1.5, -0.5]]. Its transpose is [[1, 3], [2, 4]]. Students and engineers use it for solving linear systems, transforming coordinates and vectors, computer graphics, and checking linear-algebra homework quickly.
