An '''inverse matrix''', or inverse of a [[matrix]], is the square matrix that produces the [[identity matrix]] when multiplied by its corresponding inverse. For a given matrix <math>A</math> the inverse exists if and only if the [[determinant]] of <math>A</math> is non-zero, <math>\det A \neq 0</math>. The inverse of an inverse is the original matrix.
