How this calculator works
Addition and subtraction operate element by element. Multiplication uses row-by-column products. Determinant and trace are calculated from the resulting 2×2 matrix.
Formula
A+B, A−B, or ABPerforms deterministic addition, subtraction or multiplication on two 2×2 matrices and reports result properties.
Worked example
Multiply matrices is a verified test case used by the calculation engine.
Assumptions and limitations
