3×2 Matrix Transpose Calculator
Transpose a 3×2 matrix online. Enter your entries and get the 2×3 transpose instantly, with each row of Aᵀ built from the matching column of A.
Enter a 3×2 matrix below and read off its 2×3 transpose. The grid is already sized for you, and every entry updates the result as you type.
What changes and what does not
Transposing a 3×2 matrix produces a 2×3 matrix. The entries themselves are untouched — only their positions change, with aij moving to (j, i). Entries on the main diagonal stay exactly where they are, which is why only square matrices can be symmetric.

Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of a 3×2 matrix after transposing? ▾
A 3×2 matrix transposes to a 2×3 matrix, because transposing swaps the number of rows and columns.
How do you transpose a 3×2 matrix by hand? ▾
Write the first row of the original as the first column of the result, the second row as the second column, and so on until all 3 rows have become columns.
Can a 3×2 matrix be symmetric? ▾
No. Symmetry requires A = Aᵀ, and a 3×2 matrix transposes to a 2×3 matrix, so the two cannot be equal. Only square matrices can be symmetric.
