    If\[A=\left[ \begin{matrix}    4 & 2  \\    3 & 4  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\],\[|adj\,\,A|\]is equal to:

    A) \[6\]                                     

    B) \[16\]

    C) \[10\]                                   

    D)  none of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Key Idea: If\[A=\left[ \begin{matrix}    a & b  \\    c & d  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\], then\[adj\,\,A=\left[ \begin{matrix}    d & -b  \\    -c & a  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\] We have,                 \[A=\left[ \begin{matrix}    4 & 2  \\    3 & 4  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\] Cofactors of \[A\] are                 \[{{C}_{11}}=4,\,\,{{C}_{12}}=-3\]                 \[{{C}_{21}}=-2,\,\,{{C}_{22}}=4\]                 \[adj\,\,A=\left[ \begin{matrix}    4 & -2  \\    -3 & 4  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\] Note: In any matrix we do not determine a value.
