If A is a square matrix of order 3 such that A(adj A) = \(\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & -2 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & -2\end{array}\right]\), then \(|A|\) is equal to
- A 2
- B -8
- C 8
- D -2
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) -2
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(A(\text{adj } A) = (\text{det } A) I\) \((\text{det } A) I = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & -2 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & -2\end{array}\right]\) \((\text{det } A) I = -2I\) \(\text{det } A = -2\)
