Abstract

Define a ringA to be RRF (respectively LRF) if every right (respectively left)A-module is residually finite. We determine the necessary and sufficient conditions for a formal triangular matrix ring\(T = \left( \begin{gathered} A0 \hfill \\ MB \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \right)\) to be RRF (respectively LRF). Using this we give examples of RRF rings which are not LRF.
