Here you will learn what is the diagonal matrix definition and order of diagonal matrix with examples.<\/p>\n
Let’s begin –<\/p>\n
Definition<\/strong> : A square matrix<\/a> A = \\([a_{ij}]_{n\\times n}\\) is called a diagonal matrix if all the elements, except those in the leading diagonal, are zero<\/p>\n
i.e. \\(a_{ij}\\) = 0\u00a0 for all i \\(\\ne\\) j.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
A diagonal matrix of order \\(n \\times n\\) having \\(d_1\\), \\(d_2\\), …. , \\(d_n\\) as diagonal elements is denoted by \\(diag[d_1, d_2, …. , d_n]\\).<\/p>\n
