We obtain a new formula to compute trace of any positive integer power of 2 กม 2 real matrix A, in the terms of Trace of A (TrA) and Determinant of A (DetA), which are based on definition of trace of matrix and multiplication of the matrixn times, where n is positive integer and this formula gives some corollary for TrAn when TrA or DetA are zero. %K Trace %K Determinant %K Matrix Multiplication %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=61733
