Abstract
Least squares inverses and complementary matrices are used to develop a comprehensive theory of estimation for a restricted linear model. Testable hypotheses as defined in Searle [8] are extended to involve nonestimable functions. An explicit expression for the sum of squares of deviation from the null hypothesis under the general setup with restrictions (Rao [7, p. 242]) and the corresponding number of degrees of freedom are obtained for implementation on computers.
