Let A be a non-singular square matrix of...

Let A be a non-singular square matrix of order n. Then; `|adjA| = |A|^(n-1)`

A

Statement -1 is True, Statement -2 is true, Statement -2 is a correct explanation for Statement-1.

B

Statement-1 is True, Statement -2 is True, Statement -2 is not a correct explanation for Statement -1.

C

Statement -1 is True, Statement -2 is False.

D

Statement -1 is False, Statement -2 is True.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

We know that
`A(adj A) =absAI`
`:. Abs(A(adjA))=abs(absAI)-absA^nabsA [:' abs(kA)=k^nabsA]`
`rArr absA abs(adjA)=absA^n`
`rArr abs(adjA)=absA^(n-1)`
So, statement -1 is true. But, Statement -2 is false. Because,`abs(kA)=k^nabsA`.
