Answers to Questions
What is a matrix minor? (Definition)
The minors of a matrix $ M = m_{i, j} $ are the determinants of the square sub-matrices obtained by removing the row $ i $ and the column $ j $ from $ M $.
Sometimes minors are defined by removing opposing rows and columns.
How to calculate a matrix minors?
For a square matrix of order 2, the minors represent the matrix of cofactors without the coefficients.
For larger matrices like 3x3, calculate the determinants of each sub-matrix.
Example: $$ M = \begin{matrix} a & b & c \\ d & e & f \\ g & h & i \end{matrix} $$
The determinant of the sub-matrix obtained by removing the first row and the first column is: $ ei-fh $$, do the same for all combinations of rows and columns.
