There are many different types of matrices in linear algebra which are differentiated based on their elements, order, and certain set of conditions. Matrices are referred to the plural form of a matrix. What are the different types of matrices? Below is a list of the most commonly used types of matrices in linear algebra: ·      Row matrix ·      Column matrix ·      Singleton matrix ·      Rectangular matrix ·      Square matrix ·      Identify matrices ·      Matrix of ones ·      Zero matrix ·      Diagonal matrix Symmetric matrix In linear algebra, a symmetric matrix is described as the square matrix which is equal to its transpose matrix. The transpose matrix of any given matrix A can be written as At. Therefore, a symmetric matrix A can be written as A = At. Out of all the different kinds of matrices, symmetric matrices are most commonly used in machine learning. What is symmetric matrix? In linear algebra, a symmetric matrix is a square matrix which
