Solve this

Question:

If matrix $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 2 & 3\end{array}\right]$, write $A A^{\top}$.

Solution:

Given: $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 2 & 3\end{array}\right]$

$A^{T}=\left[\begin{array}{l}1 \\ 2 \\ 3\end{array}\right]$

$A A^{T}=\left[\begin{array}{lll}1 & 2 & 3\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l}1 \\ 2 \\ 3\end{array}\right]$

$\Rightarrow A A^{T}=1+4+9$

$\Rightarrow A A^{T}=14$
