1. The area of a triangle whose vertices are (x₁, y₁), (x₂, y₂) and (x₃, y₃), is given by the expression Area of triangle = 1/2[x₁(y₂–y₃) + x₂ (y₃–y₁) + x₃ (y₁–y₂)].Adjoint and Inverse of Matrix :-![]()
1. The adjoint of a square matrix A = [aᵢⱼ]n × n is defined as the transpose of the matrix [Aᵢⱼ]n × n, where Aᵢⱼ is the cofactor of the element aᵢⱼ. Adjoint of the matrix A is denoted by adj A. 2. Inverse of matrix A, A-1 = 1/|A| x adj(A)Solution of system of linear equations using inverse of a matrix :-
1. AX = B or A-1 (AX) = A-1B (premultiplying by A-1) or (A-1A) X = A-1B (by associative property) or IX = A-1B or X = A-1B
