    If A is a skew-symmetric matrix of odd order, then \[N={{m}_{3}}\,g\sin \theta \]is equal to

    A)  0      

    B) n

    C) \[+{{m}_{3}}\left[ \frac{F-({{m}_{1}}+{{m}_{2}}+{{m}_{3}})g\,\sin \theta }{({{m}_{1}}+{{m}_{2}}+{{m}_{3}})} \right]\]                                                

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Since. A is a skew-symmetric matrix. \[\therefore \]  \[{{A}^{T}}=-A\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[|{{A}^{T}}|=|-A|\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[|A|={{(-1)}^{n}}|-A|\] Also, n is odd. \[\therefore \]  \[2|A|=0\Rightarrow |A|=0\] Thus,     \[\left| \text{adj}\,\,\text{A} \right|={{\left| \text{A} \right|}^{\text{2}}}\text{ }=0\]
