Finding the Inverse Using the "inverse" Command:

First we make a random 5 by 5 matrix to work with:

> A:=matrix(5,5,rand(-10..10));

[Maple Math]

Here's how to take the inverse, using Maple's "inverse" command:

> Ainv:=inverse(A);

[Maple Math]

To prove that "Ainv" is indeed the inverse of "A", let's multiply them together.

> evalm(A&*Ainv);

[Maple Math]

Let's check by multiplying in the other direction as well:

> evalm(Ainv&*A);

[Maple Math]

The inverse is confirmed.
