Formula:

For a square matrix A, an eigenvalue λ (lambda) and its corresponding eigenvector v satisfy the fundamental equation:

A v = λ v

This relationship can be rearranged to find λ and v:

(A - λI) v = 0

where I is the identity matrix of the same dimension as A. To determine the eigenvalues λ, we solve the characteristic equation:

det(A - λI) = 0

For a 3x3 matrix, this results in a cubic polynomial in λ. Once the eigenvalues λ are found, their corresponding eigenvectors v are determined by solving the system (A - λI) v = 0 for each λ.
