Section 13-5: Inverses of Matrices
Objectives:
1) Background – what are inverses and why find them.
2) Process for finding the inverse of a 2x2 matrix.

Background: Inverses of matrices are useful for solving systems of equations.
To introduce the concept, consider the following system of equations; this system can be written as a matrix.
The solution to this system can also be written as a matrix.
The process for using an inverse to solve a system of equation is similar to the process for solving the following simple equation.

The result of multiplying 5 by its reciprocal was 1.
The result of multiplying a matrix by its inverse
(similar to a reciprocal) is the identity matrix.
The question becomes, how do we find the inverse matrix??
Note: If a matrix is defined as A, then its inverse is defined as A-1.

Your book (see pg. 590) provides a formula for finding the inverse of a 2x2 matrix. The formula is:
