Consider a square matrix A of order 2 which has its elements as 0,1 , 2,4 . If the absolute value of A is least then, the absolute value of a d j a d j A is equal to
Options
- A0
- B2
- C1
- D4
Correct answer
B. 2
Step-by-step solution
For absolute least value of A A = 0 2 1 4   or   2 4 0 1 ⇒ A = ± 2 a d j a d j A = A ( 2 - 1 ) 2 = A = ± 2 So, absolute value is equal to 2
