Matrix operations and Matrix Inverses
Eleventh graders study how to combine like vector's that are matrices. In this matrix operations worksheet, 11th graders combine matrices linearly and define the matrix-matrix product and its properties. Students also study matrix...
Curated OER
Linear Systems
In this multiplication of vectors activity, students prove that the dot product operation is commutative. They normalize a vector so it has the same direction with a magnitude of one. Students use the angle formula to confirm orthogonality.
