Determine which of the following matrices are invertible. Try to perform as few computations as possible. A = [1 2; 2 1] B = [1 1; 2 2] C = [1 2 0; 0 1 1] D = [1 2 0; 0 1 0; 0 1 0] E = [1 2 3; 2 3 5; 1 2 3] F = [1 2 3; 0 2 3; 0 0 3] G = [0 0 0 0; 1 2 3 4; 4 3 2 1; 1 0 0 0] H = [1 1 2; 3 1 2; 3 1 2] I = [1 0 0; 0 1 0; 0 0 1] J = [0 0 1; 0 1 0; 1 0 0] K = [1 2 3; 4 5 6; 7 8 9] L = [1 1 1; 1 1 1; 1 1 1] Select all matrices which are invertible:

Step 1
So, let's compute the determinants of these matrices: det(A) = (1)(4) - (2)(3) = 4 - 6 = -2 det(B) = (2)(2) - (3)(1) = 4 - 3 = 1 det(C) = (8)(3) - (1)(2) = 24 - 2 = 22 Show more…

Determine whether each pair of matrices are inverses of each other. $$ A=\left[\begin{array}{cc}{2} & {-1} \\ {1} & {-3}\end{array}\right], B=\left[\begin{array}{rr}{\frac{1}{2}} & {0} \\ {0} & {-\frac{1}{3}}\end{array}\right] $$
