Which matrix operation corresponds to the geometric transformation of 'flipping' a matrix over its main diagonal?

Show answer

Transpose

The transpose flips an $m \times n$ matrix into an $n \times m$ matrix. It satisfies the property $(AB)^T = B^T A^T$.

Also asked as:
  • Which operation converts an $m \times n$ matrix into an $n \times m$ matrix by reflecting elements across the main diagonal?
