Inverse matrix using Hotelling Approximation

Click For Summary
Harold Hotelling's method for finding the inverse of a matrix is being explored in a Numeric Methods course. The original poster struggled to find relevant resources but eventually discovered a useful link to a paper on Project Euclid. The discussion highlights the challenge of locating specific mathematical methods and the importance of sharing resources. The poster expresses gratitude for the assistance received and plans to share further inquiries. This exchange emphasizes the collaborative nature of academic research and problem-solving.

Hello all,

I am taking a Numeric Methods course this semester and my professor asked us to investigate Harold Hotelling's method( I suppose this would be and approximation) of finding the inverse of a matrix. I have searched for day and have found many cool things linked to Hotteling but nothing to do with finding the inverse of a matrix. Can anyone point me in hte right direction.

Truly grateful. Thanks a lot!

Cheers!

that is quite odd. Looks like a nice read. I'll be sure to post any problems. Thanks one million John.
 
Question: A clock's minute hand has length 4 and its hour hand has length 3. What is the distance between the tips at the moment when it is increasing most rapidly?(Putnam Exam Question) Answer: Making assumption that both the hands moves at constant angular velocities, the answer is ## \sqrt{7} .## But don't you think this assumption is somewhat doubtful and wrong?
