In [[mathematics]], '''matrix addition''' is the operation of adding two [[matrix (mathematics)|matrices]] by adding the corresponding entries together. 

For a [[Vector space|vector]], <math>\vec{v}\!</math>, adding two matrices would have the geometric effect of applying each matrix transformation separately onto <math>\vec{v}\!</math>, then adding the transformed vectors.

:<math>\mathbf{A}\vec{v} + \mathbf{B}\vec{v} = (\mathbf{A} + \mathbf{B})\vec{v}\!</math>
