Row space , Column space , and NullspaceLinear AlgebraMATH 2010 Terminology:LetAbe the 2x4 matrixA=[2 3 1 04 5 6 2]Therow vectors ofAare[2 3 1 0][4 5 6 2](the rows ofA) in< vectors ofAare[24],[35],[ 16],[02](the columns ofA) in<2 Definition:LetAbe amxnmatrix (recallmis the number of rows andnis the number of columns ),then Therow spaceofAis the subspace of<nspanned by the row vectors ofA Thecolumn spaceofAis the subspace of<mspanned by the Column vectors ofA. Theorem:If amxnmatrixAis row-equivalent to amxnmatrixB, then the row space ofAis equalto the row space ofB.
The columns from the original matrix which have leading ones when reduced form a basis for the column space of A.In the above example, columns 1, 2, and 4 have leading ones. Therefore, columns 1, 2, and 4 of the original matrix form a basis for the column space of A.So, 2
