Equality of Matrices
Two matrices are equal if both matrices are of same order and corresponding elements are equal in both of the matrices.
For example, we have two matrices
and
.
They are equal because they have same order (2 x 3) and all the corresponding elements are equal.
,
and so on. {
represents element present in matrix A in first row and first column whereas,
represents element present in matrix B in first row and first column,
represents element present in matrix A in first row and second column and so on.}
If,
and
then they are not equal because all corresponding elements of these two matrices are not equal.
