Question
If $A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}4&2\\3&4\end{array}} \right]$,then $|adj\,\,A|$is equal to

Answer

b
(b)  $A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}4&{  2}\\{  3}&4\end{array}} \right]$

adj $A = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}4&{ - 2}\\{ - 3}&4\end{array}} \right]$

$|adj\,A|\, = (4 \times 4) - ( - 3 \times - 2) = 16 - 6$

$|adj\,A|\,\, = 10.$
