The determinant and the inverse of a 3 by 3 matrix Before you start: • You need to have covered the work on matrices in FP1, particularly the work on determinants and inverses. When you have finished…You should: • Know what is meant by the minor and the cofactor of an element of a matrix. • Be able to find the determinant of any 3 x 3 matrix. • Know simple properties of determinants (pages 87 – 89). • Be able to find the inverse of a non-singular 3 x 3 matrix.
