Example of a Triangular Matrix
Question:
Give an example of a triangular matrix.
Concept Used
A triangular matrix is a square matrix in which either all elements below the main diagonal or all elements above the main diagonal are zero.
Example
\[ A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 0 & 5 & 4 \\ 0 & 0 & 6 \end{bmatrix} \]
Explanation
– All elements below the main diagonal are zero
– Therefore, it is an upper triangular matrix
Final Answer
\[ \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ 0 & 5 & 4 \\ 0 & 0 & 6 \end{bmatrix} \]
