Echelon Form of a Matrix
Category : JEE Main & Advanced
A matrix A is said to be in Echelon form if either A is the null matrix or A satisfies the following conditions:
(1) Every non- zero row in A precedes every zero row.
(2) The number of zeros before the first non-zero element in a row is less than the number of such zeros in the next row.
If can be easily proved that the rank of a matrix in Echelon form is equal to the number of non-zero row of the matrix.
Rank of a matrix in Echelon form : The rank of a matrix in Echelon form is equal to the number of non-zero rows in that matrix.
