See the following latex keywords
[left{begin{matrix}
A=B \ C=D
end{matrix}right.]
This shows the two array as column wise in center part.

Welcome to TeX.SE. In the example you give it seems that the two equal signs are aligned, so not sure what the actual problem is. Also, while code snippets are useful in explanations, it is always best to compose a fully compilable MWE that illustrates the problem including thedocumentclassand the appropriate packages so that those trying to help don't have to recreate it.

EDIT: As suggested by @egreg :-) I add another answer using ambient cases:
documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
usepackage{mathtools}
begin{document}
[
begin{cases}
A =& B \
C =& D
end{cases}
]
end{document}
As correctly pointed out by the good user who gave you the first correct answer, if you do not indicate the precise packages that you have used we can not help you very well. In fact, to get it, I used another code that produces the same result using the ambient aligned.
documentclass[a4paper,12pt]{article}
usepackage{mathtools}
begin{document}
[
left{
begin{aligned}
A &= B \
C &= D

Your screenshot appears to be missing a linebreak betweenA=BandC=D.

@Mico But that's what I get without any packages loaded. The linebreak appears only withincludepackage{amsmath}. Frankly speaking, I don't know the reason for that... maybe thematrixenvironment is defined differently there!

The missing linebreak occurs precisely because you're not loading theamsmathpackage. The LaTeX kernel actually defines an environment calledmatrix, and that's what ends up being used because you're not loading theamsmathpackage, which provides a far more competent and polished environment with the same name. For the example at hand, I can see no valid reason for not loading theamsmathpackage.

@Mico Thanks for the explanation. My answer does suggest usingamsmathto let the linebreak take effect... producing the first screenshot. I added the second screenshot in a later edit to give an idea of what happens when amsmath package is not loaded. Your valuable explanation completes the cycle by providing the logic for the observed difference.

Welcome to TeX.SE. In the example you give it seems that the two equal signs are aligned, so not sure what the actual problem is. Also, while code snippets are useful in explanations, it is always best to compose a fully compilable MWE that illustrates the problem including the
documentclassand the appropriate packages so that those trying to help don't have to recreate it.– Peter Grill
