Inverse of Matrix [2 -3; 3 2]

Question:

Find the inverse of the matrix:

\[ \begin{bmatrix} 2 & -3 \\ 3 & 2 \end{bmatrix} \]

Concept:

For a matrix of the form:

\[ \begin{bmatrix} a & -b \\ b & a \end{bmatrix} \]

Its inverse is:

\[ \frac{1}{a^2 + b^2} \begin{bmatrix} a & b \\ – b & a \end{bmatrix} \]

Solution:

Here, \( a = 2 \), \( b = 3 \)

\[ a^2 + b^2 = 4 + 9 = 13 \]

So inverse is:

\[ \frac{1}{13} \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 3 \\ -3 & 2 \end{bmatrix} \]

Final Answer:

\[ \boxed{ \frac{1}{13} \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 3 \\ -3 & 2 \end{bmatrix} } \]
