👉 Linear Algebra (LC Math) is a branch of mathematics that focuses on vector spaces, linear transformations, and matrices. It provides the mathematical framework for understanding and working with systems of linear equations, which are fundamental in many fields including physics, engineering, computer science, and data analysis. At its core, LC Math deals with vectors—quantities with both magnitude and direction—and matrices, which are rectangular arrays of numbers used to represent linear transformations. Key concepts include vector addition and scalar multiplication, matrix operations like addition, multiplication, and inversion, eigenvalues and eigenvectors for understanding transformations, and the span and basis of vector spaces. These tools enable efficient problem-solving in areas such as solving systems of equations, data compression, machine learning algorithms, and computer graphics.
