The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the properties of the adjoint of a matrix and how they relate to the determinant of an invertible matrix \( A \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Adjoint Matrix**: The adjoint of a matrix \( A \), denoted as \( \text{adj}(A) \), is defined such that: \[ A \cdot \text{adj}(A) = \det(A) I_n \] where \( I_n \) is the identity matrix of the same order as \( A \). 2. **Using the Property of Adjoint**: For a \( 3 \times 3 \) matrix \( A \): \[ A \cdot \text{adj}(A) = \det(A) I_3 \] This property is always true for any invertible matrix \( A \). 3. **Adjoint of the Adjoint**: There is a property that states: \[ \text{adj}(\text{adj}(A)) = \det(A)^{n-2} A \] For \( n = 3 \): \[ \text{adj}(\text{adj}(A)) = \det(A)^{3-2} A = \det(A) A \] This means that this property is also true. 4. **Inverse of the Adjoint**: We also have: \[ \text{adj}(A) = \det(A) A^{-1} \] This is true for any invertible matrix \( A \). 5. **Determinant of the Adjoint**: The determinant of the adjoint can be expressed as: \[ \det(\text{adj}(A)) = \det(A)^{n-1} \] For \( n = 3 \): \[ \det(\text{adj}(A)) = \det(A)^2 \] This property holds true as well. 6. **Identifying the False Statement**: Now, we need to determine which of the given statements is not always true. Based on the properties discussed: - The first statement is likely the one that does not hold true universally among the options provided. ### Conclusion: After evaluating the properties of the adjoint and the determinant, we conclude that the first option is the one that is not always true.
