Matrix Calculations (MAT) (fx-570MS/
fx-991MS only)
Use the
key to enter the MAT Mode when you want to perform
matrix calculations.
(MAT)
Use the MAT Mode to perform calculations involving matrices of up to 3
rows by 3 columns. To perform a matrix calculation, you first assign data to
special matrix variables (MatA, MatB, MatC), and then use the variables in
the calculation as shown in the example below.
Note
Matrix calculations can use up to two levels of the matrix stack. Squaring a matrix,
cubing a matrix, or inverting a matrix uses one stack level. See "Stacks" for more
information.
Example 1: To assign
to MatA and to MatB, and then
perform the following calculations: × (MatA × MatB),
+ (MatA + MatB)
1. Press
(MAT) (Dim) (A).
2. Input the dimensions of MatA: 2 2 .
This will display the Matrix Editor for input of the elements of the 2 × 2
matrix you specified for MatA.
(1) Shows the row number and column number of the element.
(Example: MatA
23
indicates row 2, column 3 of MatA.)
3. Input the elements of MatA: 2 1 1 1 .
4. Perform the following key operation: (MAT) (Dim) (B) 2
2 .
This will display the Matrix Editor for input of the elements of the 2 × 2
matrix you specified for MatB.
5. Input the elements of MatB: 2 1 1 2 .
