Symmetric Matrix
A
symmetric matrix
is a
square matrix
that is equal to its transpose, meaning the element at row i, column j is the same as the element at row j, column i. This property makes symmetric matrices particularly important in
linear algebra
, as they often have
real eigenvalues
and
orthogonal eigenvectors
, simplifying many
mathematical computations
.
