ABOUT THE SONG<\/p>\n

\n
In math, to “transpose” means to switch the rows and columns of a matrix or, in algebra, to move a term from one side of an equation to the other by changing its sign. <\/span>Transposing a matrix is often shown with a superscript ‘T’ (<\/span><\/span>ATcap A to the cap T-th power \ud835\udc34\ud835\udc47)<\/span> and involves flipping the matrix over its main diagonal. <\/span>In an equation, moving a term across the equals sign is a form of transposition that helps in solving for a variable. <\/span>
