  1. Linear Equations in Linear Algebra 1.2 Row Reduction and Echelon Forms

  2. Definition • A rectangular matrix is in echelon form(or row echelon form) • if it has the following three properties: • All nonzero rows are above any rows of all zeros. • Each leading entry of a row is in a column to the right of the • leading entry of the row above it. • 3. All entries in a column below a leading entry are zeros. • If a matrix in echelon form satisfies the following two conditions, • then it is in reduced echelon form(or reduced row echelon form): • 4. The leading entry in each nonzero row is 1. • 5. Each leading 1 is the only nonzero entry in its column. Leading entry: leftmost nonzero entry

  3. Example1 Echelon form Reduced Echelon form

  4. Examples: Echelon form? Reduced echelon form ? Reduced echelon form? Echelon form? Echelon form? Reduced echelon form? Reduced echelon form? Echelon form?

  5. Theorem (Uniqueness of the Reduced Echelon Form) Each matrix is row equivalent to one and only one reduced echelon matrix.

  6. Definition A pivot position in a matrix A is a location in A that corresponds to a leading 1 in the reduced echelon form of A. A pivot column is a column of A that contains a pivot position. Pivot position Pivot column

  7. Note: When row operations produce a matrix in echelon form, further row operations to obtain the reduced echelon form do not change the position of the leading entries.

  8. Elementary Row OperationsUsing the TI83 Matrix/math • B: rref(matrix) • C: rowSwap(matrix, rowA, rowB) • D: row+(matrix, rowA, rowB) • E: *row(value, matrix, row) • F:*row+(value, matrix, rowA, rowB)
