PC.N-VM.C

Perform operations on matrices and use matrices in applications.

PC.N-VM.C.10(+) Understand that the zero and identity matrices play a role in matrix addition and multiplication similar to the role of 0 and 1 in the real numbers. The determinant of a square matrix is nonzero if and only if the matrix has a multiplicative inverse.PC.N-VM.C.11(+) Multiply a vector (regarded as a matrix with one column) by a matrix of suitable dimensions to produce another vector. Work with matrices as transformations of vectors.PC.N-VM.C.12(+) Work with 2 x 2 matrices as transformations of the plane, and interpret the absolute value of the determinant in terms of area.PC.N-VM.C.6(+) Use matrices to represent and manipulate data, e.g., to represent payoffs or incidence relationships in a network.PC.N-VM.C.7(+) Multiply matrices by scalars to produce new matrices, e.g., as when all of the payoffs in a game are doubled.PC.N-VM.C.8(+) Add, subtract, and multiply matrices of appropriate dimensions.PC.N-VM.C.9(+) Understand that, unlike multiplication of numbers, matrix multiplication for square matrices is not a Commutative operation, but still satisfies the Associative and Distributive properties.
