• The two matrices must have the same dimensions in order to be added or
subtracted. An error occurs if you try to add or subtract matrices of different
dimensions.
• For multiplication, the number of columns in Matrix 1 must match the number of
rows in Matrix 2. Otherwise, an error occurs.
• You can use an identity matrix in place of Matrix 1 or Matrix 2 in the matrix
arithmetic format. Use the matrix command menu's Identity command (1)
to input the identity matrix.
Example 3 To multiply Matrix A (from Example 1) by a 2 ! 2 identity matrix
