ok lets do it again. :x

I was telling that if $A = A^T ?$ or not. ...(1)

And found that not always. (1) is true iff $A$ is symmetric. Can you give me an example where $A$ matrix is symmetric but not all of its elements(ভুক্তি) (or, entry) are same. ;)

i.e.

\[A = \begin{bmatrix}
5&5 \\
5&5
\end{bmatrix}\] this matric's all entry are same(5).

Iff the <span class="typeset"><nobr><span class="scale"><span style="position:relative;"><span style="position:absolute; top:0em; left:0em;"><span class="cmmi10">A</span> </span><span class="blank" style="width:0.752em;height:0.902em;vertical-align:0.902em"></span></span><span class="blank" style="height:0.783em;vertical-align:0.733em"></span></span></nobr></span> is symmetric.
I meant 'same' as all of a matric's entry are same. like the above one.

"বিম্ভব" এইটা তো বইতেই আছে :oops:

and what is "INVERSE Matrix"


can you suggest me any book about matrix(not very complicated; I've seen some notes on matrix but dont understand anything :lol: )

Start with any good linear algebra book. Introduction to linear algebra by Lang comes to mind now.

I think Lang's book would be difficult for you, since you do not have previous experience with this kind of math.
Try this : http://www.amazon.com/Matrices-Linear-A ... 0486660141
This starts with more basic concepts.
