Let the matrix \(A=\left[\begin{array}{ll}2 & 3 \\ 1 & 4\end{array}\right]\). Then which of the following are true?
(A) \(\operatorname{adj} A =\left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & -3 \\ -1 & 2\end{array}\right]\)
(B) \(\operatorname{det}( A )=5\)
(C) \(\operatorname{det}(\operatorname{adj} A )=25\)
(D) If \(A^3=\left[\begin{array}{ll}a & b \\ c & d\end{array}\right]\), then \(a+b=c+d\)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below :
- A (A) and (D) only
- B (A), (B) and (C) only
- C (B) and (D) only
- D (A), (B) and (D) only
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) (A), (B) and (D) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(A) \(\operatorname{adj} A = \left[\begin{array}{cc}4 & -3 \\ -1 & 2\end{array}\right]\). (True) (B) \(\operatorname{det}( A ) = (2)(4) - (3)(1) = 8 - 3 = 5\). (True) (C) \(\operatorname{det}(\operatorname{adj} A ) = \operatorname{det}(A) = 5\). (False, given 25) (D)…
