| - | The determinant of an upper triangular $n\times n$ matrix | + | If $A$ is an upper triangular |
| + | |||
| + | * Every diagonal matrix is upper triangular! | ||
| + | * So it suffices just to prove it for upper triangular matrices. | ||

| - If $B$ is another $n\times n$ matrix, then $\det(AB)=\det(A)\det(B)$. | - If $B$ is another $n\times n$ matrix, then $\det(AB)=\det(A)\det(B)$. | ||

| + | - $A^T$ is invertible if and only if $A$ is invertible | ||
| + | - $AB$ is invertible if and only if **both** $A$ and $B$ are invertible | ||

| + | * Warning: it's not true that $A+B$ is invertible if and only if $A$ and $B$ are invertible! | ||
