Hello everyone. I have a matrix that is:

0.004648380836025 0.002524412954424 -0.002524412954424 -0.000821180565226 0 0.002524412954424

When i use inv command and take the inverse of this matrix Matlab gives this error:

Warning: Matrix is close to singular or badly scaled. Results may be inaccurate. RCOND = 6.491115e-18.

And calculate as:

1.0e+18 *

0.527794489188861 0.821991214493020 -0.527794489188860 -0.821991214493019 -0.187357017765717 -0.291791266736634

When i write this matrix in a inverse matrix calculator, it gives solutions as:

99.1851027125306 -154.47164513524 -8.121274793333 4.80129825 0 0

198.3702054 307.99528228 -197.76706 -310.0436 0 0

I write the solutions badly, however i think it is understandable.

Why Matlab gives this error and calculates wrong? I didn't find any solutions to this.

Thanks for helps.

It's a warning (not really error)

It means your matrix is numerically not invertible (or almost not invertible)

... because of Matlab find inverse with the help of determinant.

I can assure you that this is not the case.

From the MATLAB documentation of inv:

inv performs an LU decomposition of the input matrix (or an LDL decomposition if the input matrix is Hermitian). It then uses the results to form a linear system whose solution is the matrix inverse inv(X). For sparse inputs, inv(X) creates a sparse identity matrix and uses backslash, X\speye(size(X)).
