Help with Matrix Algebra?

[Acolyte]

Got some homework/assignment to do on Matrix Algebra, but i really have only been brushed with the basics.

If anyone can give any help at all on this please MSN me on lainewc at hotmail.com

Thanks!

Im not looking for people to do it for me, just a little point in the right direction.

"By Using appropriate analytical techniques in Matrices and Complex numbers that you have learned on the module, determine the current flowing in each branch, for the A.C Network shown in the figure.

Note: Apply kirchoffs laws using loops with the direction both clockwise"

Is it not just representing the values of resistance etc as matrices instead of single numbers? So you go through Kirchoff's laws, and add the resistances where you should add then and then apply V=IR or whatever, but instead of using values you're using matrix addition, multiplication etc.

I havnt actually tried it (Hey, its your work not mine ), but if you sit down with all the relevant rules and methods in front of you I'd have thought it would be fairly simple.
