MCQ
If $\text{S}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{a} & \text{b} \\ \text{c} & \text{d} \end{bmatrix},$ then adj A is:
  • A
    $\begin{bmatrix} -\text{d} & -\text{b} \\ -\text{c} & \text{a} \end{bmatrix}$
  • $\begin{bmatrix} \text{d} & -\text{b} \\ -\text{c} & \text{a} \end{bmatrix}$
  • C
    $\begin{bmatrix} \text{d} & \text{b} \\ \text{c} & \text{a} \end{bmatrix}$
  • D
    $\begin{bmatrix} \text{d} & \text{c} \\ \text{b} & \text{a} \end{bmatrix}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\begin{bmatrix} \text{d} & -\text{b} \\ -\text{c} & \text{a} \end{bmatrix}$
Adjoint of a square matrix of order 2 is obtained by interchancing the diagoinal elements and changing the signs of off-diagonal elements.
Here,

$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{a} & \text{bc} & \text{d} \end{bmatrix}$

$\Rightarrow\text{adj A}=\begin{bmatrix}\text{d} & -\text{b}-\text{c} & \text{a} \end{bmatrix}$
