== Symmetric Matrices == A '''symmetric matrix''' is is any matrix that is equal to its transpose. Only square matrices (''n'' by ''n'') can be symmetric. However, multiplying a rectangular matrix R by its transpose R^T^ will always create a symmetric matrix. This can be proven with the above property: (R^T^ R)^T^ = R^T^ (R^T^)^T^ = R^T^ R |
A [[LinearAlgebra/SpecialMatrices#Symmetric_Matrices|symmetric matrix]] is equal to its transpose: '''''A''' = '''A'''^T^''. Only square matrices can be symmetric. |
Transposition
Transposition is the process of 'flipping' a matrix.

Description
A transposed matrix is commonly notated with a T superscript, as in AT. In many programming languages however, the notation A' is preferred.
Cell (i,j) of AT is equal to cell (j,i) of A.

Properties
The transpose of a product is the same as the reversed product of the transposed multiples. (AB)T = BT AT.
Inversion and transposition can be done in any order: (A-1)T = (AT)-1.
For orthogonal matrices (such as permutation matrices), the transpose and inverse are equivalent: QT = Q-1.
A symmetric matrix is equal to its transpose: A = AT. Only square matrices can be symmetric.
